About this Workshop:
In this workshop, you’ll learn how to screenprint your own design in a repetitive fashion onto a 44” x 72” piece of paper or fabric. Working in a tag team fashion with large screens, you will pair up with another student to work together in learning how to design into a grid and carry out a sequence of a printed pattern.
Level: All levels welcome – Introduction to Screenprinting on Fabric, or similar experience (6 hours) is helpful, but not required.
Registration closes November 24, 2022 and includes a materials fee to cover consumable materials provided in class, including a brand new silkscreen for you to keep. Students will also need to supply additional items of their own—please see the class materials list below for information.
