About

This introductory class will offer the opportunity to print a unique design. Starting with your own design, you will create a custom screen and print on provided tea towels and textiles! This class will go over beginning silk screen techniques including photo emulsion exposure, printing, heat-setting, and proper clean-up. All skills welcome!

Skill Level: Universal.  All skill levels are welcome.

Age Level: 8+.  Children between the ages of 8 - 14 will need to accompany and supervise the adults working with them on a silk screen project.

What to Bring: Bring a design to transfer onto the screen. You will be able to print with one color, so think of a simple design you can replicate. 

Materials fee are included in the price of the class. They include 3 white cotton dish towels. If you would like to print on other materials (shirts, bags, clothing), please make sure it is washed and solid knit or woven. Cotton t-shirts, denim, muslin, and canvas are all good options.
