Teen Screen printmaking workshops are hands-on classes for high school age students interested in exploring the basics of screenprinting. In this two day weekend workshop, participants will learn photo emulsion screenprinting and print their own designs to create fabric patches, vinyl stickers, multi-layer posters. Each session teens will be introduced to the work of a local or national printshop for inspiration.

Drawing and/or painting experience is recommended but all skill levels are welcome. All materials included with class fee.
