We are 100 UK printmakers creating inspiring prints on an annual theme. In 2024, the theme was "Bring me Sunshine" inspired by the Morecambe & Wise song, with prints sold in aid of two charities - Place 2 Be and Edible Rotherhithe. Place 2 Be helps school children improve their mental health and wellbeing across the UK. Edible Rotherhithe provides creative learning opportunities through gardening and printmaking sessions in schools. For more information about these charities and what they do, please visit

Exhibitions
It's been a journey this year from idea stage to gathering printmakers' work to organising exhibitions! Take a look at where the project is heading to next...
Milestone Studios, Rock Mill Lane,
New Mills, SK22 3BN
3rd - 31st August 2024
We were delighted to be hosted by Milestone Studios in August 2024. The exhibition featured prints from printmakers around the UK who donated their work to Thought Press Project. The exhibition raised funds for Edible Rotherhithe and Place2be.
The exhibition’s theme, ‘Bring Me Sunshine’, was interpreted in so many amazing ways, so great to see people checking out the prints which helped us to support two incredible charities benefitting children and young people with their mental and physical health and wellbeing.
Milestone Studios and Gallery was open on Saturdays during August from 11am to 4pm.
On the Bank Holiday weekend in August there were some special print demos and activities.
