WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

This is a two-colour introduction class to screen printing onto fabric and paper.

If you’re a curious beginner, an intermediate needing a refresher class or an advanced stencil printer who wants to learn the possibilities of using emulsion on screens to increase the intricacy of their prints, this class is for you!

Choose one of the following projects to tackle on the day:

  • T-Shirt
  • Tea Towel
  • Tote Bag
  • Set of 5 Posters

Learn to take a piece of artwork of your choosing, expose it onto a screen using photo emulsion and uv light, then print onto your choice of surface: fabric or paper. You'll receive a complimentary t-shirt, tote bag, tea towel or 5 x sheets of poster card to print onto, as your project for the day.

There will be time to print a few prints on the day, so feel free to bring an extra shirt or item to test onto. Alternatively, we have blank shirts, tea towels, tote bags and extra poster card which is available for purchase on the day, if you'd like to print some extras.
