The November 2022 event…

2022 theme: Cornucopia –aka the Horn of Plenty – is a symbol of abundance, feasting and prosperity. It has been used for thousands of years by many different cultures, as a symbol of nourishment and in mythological stories. More here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornucopia. We think it’s a lovely symbol of revival and celebration, following dark times.

More photos coming soon, but in the meantime…

About our Community Steamroller Print Events


For months each year, people from around Adelaide and South Australia enthusiastically carve small relief blocks especially for us ... Each year, around artists, ranging from 4 to 80 years old. Hundreds of small blocks are combined into larger blocks to make giant lino prints around the year’s theme … this year the theme is ‘Bike Hike Skate Scoot, last year ‘Cornucopia’, in 2021 ‘Bottom of the Garden’, in 2020 ‘Critters’ and in 2019 'Summer' (the November event) and ‘Hindmarsh’ (the April event).

'Steamroller printing' is fantastic fun. Around the world, printmakers use old steamrollers, road rollers, cricket pitch rollers and water drums to print large-scale relief blocks, made from anything from artist lino and floor marmoleum to salvaged plywood and the recycled floors of old gymnasiums.

For more about past events:

This event is proudly put on by Stone & Quoin and generously supported by Union St Printmakers, Pony & Cole cafe and Koush Design.
Road roller generously provided by Coates Hire. Relief blocks & lino matting generously provided by Union St Printmakers and forbo flooring.

Unique, hand-printed tea towels and library bags can be ordered by clicking here or emailing Simone. (Collection to be arranged from Simone when she is at 6 Manton St or posted to you several weeks after ordering. Because the ink takes a fortnight to dry…)

Funds generated by tea towel sales support future Stone & Quoin studio events… And they make TERRIFIC mementos and gifts!
