Info

Beginning in Spring 2021, the Print Lab will offer printing services for pickup.

To promote social distancing and limit the spread of Covid-19, we can't have people physically printing in the lab for now—there just isn't enough space. Instead, our friendly and experienced Print Lab staff and student monitors will receive your orders using an online form and print them for you.

Completed prints will be available for low-contact pickup at the Ampersand Emporium in Design Square Apartments, 91 Cleveland Ave, Columbus, OH 43215, Thursdays 11-4 or by appointment (email artsupplies@ccad.edu or call 614-222-3211).

Note

We cannot ship completed prints to you. All orders must be picked up in person at the Ampersand Emporium in Design Square Apartments, 91 Cleveland Ave, Columbus, OH 43215. If you cannot pick up prints at the Ampersand, please order prints from your local print shop.
