The DRAW at MKAD

6:00 - 9:00 pm

Ages 16 and Up

During our workshop students will be taken through the basic process of screen-printing on fabric. They will be taught to coat and expose a screen using emulsion and an exposure unit,and how to print with water-based inks to make their own original beautiful prints.We will focus on placement printing with up to 2 screens if students would like to do a 2 colour print.

We will also discuss repeat and yardage printing as information only.The idea here is to focus on learning new skills, whilst creating an end-product, learning and gaining knowledge in the process is key to last a lifetime.

All materials are included.
