Class Description: Create single-color screenprints using hand drawn/painted images, text and stencils! In this class you will learn how to coat a screen with light-sensitive emulsion, make light-opaque hand-drawn films and stencils, expose your screen, wash it out and print on paper with non-toxic, water-soluble inks.
What to Bring: You can bring your own t-shirts and tote bags or other clothing to print on , but keep in mind, you will only have time to print a few - the class is just 4 hours long in order to keep the price down and make it more affordable!
Come prepared with images and/or text to trace onto film or work spontaneously. You are welcome to bring pre-cut stencils as long as the material is flat and completely opaque (blocks the light).
Please keep in mind we will be printing in one color. We will pack a lot of processes into a short amount of time, so keep your designs simple for this first experience. Be sure your Image size is a maximum of 8.5 × 11”.
Screenprinting is fun, but can be messy. I recommend bringing an apron and/or work clothes.
Participation Cost: Materials are included in the price of the class: 1 screen and light-opaque pens (to use for the class period), film, emulsion, ink, 4 sheets of specialty printing paper
*Note: Taxes include VT 6% & Town of Wilmington 1% sales tax rates
Registration: Please sign up by Friday, June 26th.
Class Date & Time: Sunday, June 28th, 1-5 pm
