The course is designed for complete beginners or as a refresher for those with some experience. We will be working in a studio with full screen printing equipment. Learn the basics to enable you to continue printing on your own. Create your own motifs, cut out in paper as well as contact paper and experiment with colour combinations and repeat layouts.

All equipment and materials provided, including: screens, inks, binders, pens, pencils and rulers. A starter pack of fabrics is provided, but students are encouraged to bring some of their own fabric or fabric items.
