The ABC No Rio computer center is a public resource available to artists, writers, small press publishers, activists, and the community at large. We provide Mac, Windows, and Linux workstations for word processing, graphics design, internet access, and new media production. Our computer center is also a forum for skills and knowledge sharing.

The ABC No Rio Photography Collective is an all-volunteer team of photographers who believe in providing open, accessible and affordable resources to other artists, regardless of experience. Our darkroom reflects a skill-sharing model in which those with varying experience with photography can both utilize our darkroom facilities and share knowledge with one another.

The ABC No Rio PrintShop is used by artists, activists, bands and others for t-shirts, posters, patches, fine arts, and other projects. The PrintShop is a skills-sharing resource: volunteers are on hand to assist and teach the printing process. Feel free to text the number above to make an appointment to discuss your project.

The ABC No Rio zine library is open to the public.
