Saturday 5 August: Screen Print Workshop for Adults

2pm-5pm. In this hands-on and practical screenprinting workshop at Bell House, printers will draw designs and make paper stencils taking inspiration from your own project ideas or from the images available in the workshop, mostly focusing on bold shapes and patterns.

We will print using water-based textile screenprinting inks, using transparent and opaque colours to produce layered designs and repeat patterns. By the end of the workshop, you will have a collection of A5 – A3 screen-printed fabric samples.

All materials and equipment will be provided. Printers are welcome to bring their own fabrics from home and an old t-shirt or tote bag to upcycle and transform through print. If you have time before the workshop, feel free to cut your own A5 – A4 paper stencils.

This workshop is suitable for anyone, beginners, and those with experience. By the end of the three-hour workshop you will have a greater understanding of the process, the equipment and materials needed to print at home.
