ABOUT

Hoopla Press & Gallery (HPG) is dedicated to displaying contemporary hand-pulled prints, while also providing modest, affordable and digitally inclined printmaking facilities to print-based artists and print enthusiasts. HPG hopes to grow, and particular points of interest include offering educational/teaching opportunities, community engagement projects and collaborative printing. Hoopla Press & Gallery is a space to explore what it means to think through printmaking.

Think it - Ink It!

HPG is located on traditional Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee territory. It is a privilege to make prints and think through print media on these lands.
