Ready to take your screen printing skills to the next level?

Join us for an engaging, hands-on Screen Printing Intensive where you’ll work in teams and learn the entire process of creating a custom design, setting up a screen, and printing your design onto a tote bag. This workshop is perfect for those with intermediate computer skills who want to dive deeper into digital design and screen printing.

What You’ll Learn:

Design Creation: Using platforms like Canva and Adobe Illustrator, you'll learn how to craft your own designs and prepare them for screen printing. Knowledge of how to move, resize, and manipulate images on your computer will be extremely helpful!

Screen Setup: Learn the technical steps to set up your screen, including how to apply your design to the screen for clear, vibrant prints.

Cut with Cricut: Use a Cricut machine to cut your design into a vinyl stencil that will be applied to your screen, allowing for sharp, crisp results when printing.

Screen Printing: Once your screen is ready, you’ll get to print your design onto a tote bag, making a one-of-a-kind item to take home.

This workshop is designed for individuals with intermediate computer skills—you should feel comfortable with basic image editing tools and have experience moving and resizing images. Familiarity with Canva is encouraged. Note that skills in Adobe Illustrator and Cricut are not required since the facilitator will run participants through every step for these platforms. 

Details:

Max Participants: 8 (Registration required!)

Waitlist: Anyone on the waitlist is welcome to join us from 7:30-8 PM to try their hand at screen printing.

Arrive Early: Please arrive 15 minutes before the event starts to ensure we can begin on time.

Spots are limited, so make sure to register today to secure your place in this exciting, creative workshop!
