Riso Quest

AIGA Chicago × Wizard Staffing Co × Chicago Tabletop Association bring you a creative activity where graphic design meets world-building. Riso Quest is a collaborative workshop dedicated to creating a sprawling, interconnected map of your choice, using the vibrant magic of Risograph printing.

The Objective

Join us to design dungeon maps, world maps, or terrain as a part of this workshop . Whether you’re a designer or a dungeon master, you’ll get to create your own set of riso prints depicting a location or world of your own design. Riso utilizes layering of soy-based inks to create a design that’s uniquely textured and beautifully imperfect.

• Design: Master Riso color-separation and overprinting.
• Build: Use tabletop mechanics to determine your creation’s features.
• Print: Watch your maps come to life on the drum in real-time.

The Loot

Every player leaves with a set of prints ready for your next campaign or to hang on your gallery wall.
