Screenprinting Workshop
What:
Learn how to screen print using an embroidery hoop with Anfisa of Dirty Bones Creative Co.! This hands-on workshop teaches an approachable screen printing method that you can easily recreate at home. We'll start with a brief but thorough discussion on screen printing and explore how the process can be modified using simple, accessible tools. You'll learn how to create a stencil, pull clean prints by hand, and build your own screen. Then it's time to get hands-on as you create your screen and print your tote bag. Throughout the workshop, you'll have plenty of opportunities to ask questions, and we'll finish with tips for caring for and preserving your finished piece.
Your ticket includes step-by-step instruction on the DIY screen printing process from start to finish, access to a variety of ink colors, and one canvas tote bag to print on. You'll also receive a PDF guide by email detailing the process and supplies used in class so you can continue experimenting at home. Best of all, you'll leave with your own screen printed tote, plus refreshments and a special shopping discount at Son of a Sailor.
