About this Workshop:
Gear up for the summer season by creating your very own set of screenprinted coasters! In this session, we’ll guide you through the process of screenprinting using prepared screens burned with a variety of designs inspired by the sunny, summer season. Colorful ink will be mixed, and the paper coasters will be ready—just bring yourself (and maybe a friend!). Make+Takes are the perfect way to try screenprinting before jumping into a full-length workshop.
Level: Beginner – no previous experience necessary!
Registration closes May 22, 2024 and all materials are provided.
CLASS MATERIALS LIST:
Registration includes all materials—just come ready to have fun! In addition, you may want to bring the following optional items for class:
- Personal apron (we’ll have extras) or wear clothes that can get inky
- Note pad and pencil if you’d like to take notes

“I thought [the instructor] did a great job of explaining the screenprinting process and gave clear instructions. It was a great short intro workshop.”
