Megalo Print Studio is located in Canberra and is funded by the ACT Government. Megalo was established in 1980 as a community access screenprint workshop for paper and fabric printing. In 2000 the etching, relief printing and lithography equipment from the Studio One Print Workshop was incorporated to establish what is now a comprehensive printmaking facility for artists and the broader community.
