Have you ever wanted to try screen printing but thought you didn’t have the necessary tools, space, or budget to get started? Well, leave all those concerns behind!
This beginner-friendly, one-day workshop will walk you through how to create your own clean, unique, and vibrant prints at home using simple, affordable, and easily accessible materials. No fancy equipment required!
Participants will learn how to prepare their own makeshift screen, design a stencil, and pull their first-ever print using household items and low-cost supplies. Taking it step by step, we will go from idea to finished print, and by the end of our time, you’ll walk away with:
A completed one-color print of your own design
A reusable DIY screen you can keep printing with
A new understanding of materials and tips for printing at home on a budget
This class is perfect for artists, crafters, or total beginners. No prior experience necessary!
