Fundamentals of Printmaking

Come learn how to screen print using photo emulsion and your own design from Ashley! Screen printing (also known as silk- screening) is the process in which ink is pushed through a mesh screen that is mounted in a frame and onto a porous surface like paper or fabric. In this one-day workshop, you will learn the basics of emulsion screen printing, from printing positives to exposing screens, and finally pulling a small edition of your own custom prints. When you sign up, start thinking of ideas and we’ll send more details about how to compose your design as the workshop approaches. The atmosphere will be collaborative and supportive, so come as you are and take some new skills with you! When you sign up for this class, you will also receive a 1-session lab pass to either our clay lab or figure drawing lab.

WHEN: January 25, 5-8pm

PRICE: MEMBER $135 / GENERAL $150
