About
Make a screen printed T-shirt to take home and wear proudly!
An experienced printmaker will guide you through every step of the screen printing process, which commercial printers use today for the design of mass-produced clothing. Discover this wonderful DIY process that will have you printing your own shirts in no time! All aspects of screen printing will be covered including how to transfer an image to the screen, how to properly set up the screen for printing, what types of inks can be used and how to heat set for washing the T-shirt fabric.
