Interested in screen printing? This beginner-friendly intro class is for you!
In this class, you’ll be guided through the process of printing a one-color screen print on paper. You’ll learn how to draw a transparency, which will be exposed onto a screen. This creates a stencil that you can print from! You’ll then learn how to prepare your printing area, mix ink, and print multiple copies of your design! You’ll also gain some experience working in a communal studio setting.
All workshop materials are provided.
