ExhibitionsCelebrating our new look
Delve into our new website to find out what’s coming up in 2024 and why we love printmaking.
New name, new website
When we set up SLAUGHTERHAUS Print Studio in 2010, we named it after the building. Redesigning our website in 2024 was also the perfect time to launch our new name, HAUSPRINT.
Etching Year | 40 weeks | Mondays | June 2024
This Monday evening class is a unique opportunity to build your etching skills over the course of a year. The HAUSPRINT Etching Year is designed to provide stable building blocks for your printmaking future, whatever your starting point. Over 40 weeks you’ll be guided through a specialist programme delivered over three terms which teaches the principles of etching.
On Siss / Phuss: Ziqi Xu in conversation with Livia Wang
“It’s all because I want to see myself, I want to see those unnoticed moments, how they pass by, what is really happening. So that makes the work very personal.”
Crowdfunder appeal – we need your help
We are crowdfunding to raise the money to invest in two new etching presses.
We are asking everyone who has ever been to the studio, bought a print, taken a class, or enjoyed an exhibition opening to support our work going forwards – and to share our appeal with anyone you think might help!
Guerilla Artists: Drawing & Drypoint | 4 alternate Sundays | June 2024
Find unique ways to express yourself, with an exciting combination of external drawing trips and working in the print studio.
Collecting the Looking
“I love drawing really quickly. I love drawing in really difficult situations. I love drawing in the dark. I like what happens when you can’t see everything or when it’s passed and you have to remember it rather than drawing what it actually looks like, so it’s about the experience of looking as much as what I’m looking at.”
We talk to Michelle Avison about building a resilient artistic practice over 30 years.

Sketch
A beautifully drawn soft ground etching by our volunteer technician Mia who graduated in 2023 from Manchester Uni with a first in animation and illustration. Mia’s work is autobiographical and wryly funny – it plays out the day to day anxieties and thoughts of a recent arts graduate trying to find her way in the world.
Tide (Vertical) no.16
Part of Tide (Vertical) series of monotypes which were made were made in the studio, responding to 100 watercolour paintings made in Scotland in the summer of 2021. This image describes the sea changing. A blue green sea and splashes that describe the moment the wave breaks on the shore.
Siss Phuss
What remains of the daylight becomes a ghost in the night, what haunts in the darkness becomes a shadow under the sun. My shadow and me, every day.
