About
Alice Prentice runs Isle of Riso, a community-led creative studio based in Inverness in the Scottish Highlands.
Isle of Riso exists to help people reconnect with creativity, community, and each other through accessible printing and participatory events. A lot of arts spaces and specialist processes can feel closed off or a bit gatekept. Isle of Riso is built to remove those barriers and make it easier to have a go.
The focus is on welcoming, low-pressure spaces where creativity becomes a shared experience. There’s no pressure to be “good”, no pressure to make something perfect, and no pressure for creativity to turn into a career. It’s about learning by doing, making alongside others, and building a sense of belonging.
Isle of Riso is shaped by where it is: consistent and welcoming creative spaces matter, especially in places with fewer options. Everything is run with a sustainable pace, and with respect and care, kindness, patience, and consideration for others are non-negotiable.
