In this 4-hour intensive workshop you will learn how to make your own silkscreening set-up that can run right off your kitchen table. You will learn how to prepare a screen, transfer an image, and make a print from start to finish.
We supply a tote bag, or you may bring your own t-shirt. Let us guide you through this notoriously tricky medium so that you can print at home with confidence.
Important Things to Note: - You will be given t-shirts and/or tote bags to print on, in class.
- Please wear clothes that can get messy.
- The art [design] should be no bigger than half of a letter sized paper.
- If you are able to bring it already printed onto acetate, you will be able to bypass the tracing step of the process.
Note:$40 Materials fee payable on the first day of class includes 4 tote bags, reusable screen, squeegee and take home instructions.
Bring your ideas and design references for what you might like to print - bold graphic shapes work best! Any additional clothing or items you may want to print on are welcome but optional.
