Screen Printing Workshop

Learn how to screen print your own design (or a studio design) from screen exposure using photo emulsion and a lightbox to printing and then stripping the screens, in this hands-on class in Sydney's Inner West!

We will use one screen during the session which is ideal for a single-colour design or a rainbow print using many colours simultaneously. Students can also reuse the screen to print in a variety of colours.

Screen printing allows you to replicate a visual design across surfaces (e.g. fabric) with plenty of room for experimentation.

If you'd like to print your own design please read the "What students should bring" section of this page. Your teacher Carizza offers multiple colour designs using up to four screens across her classes.

Each participant will receive an item to print e.g. a t-shirt, tea towel or tote bag. There will be swatch fabrics and textured papers to develop your skills on too. You're welcome to bring extra items to print (please make sure they are made from natural materials such as cotton, linen etc.)

This class is ideal for those seeking a new skill or refreshing old skills, making handmade gifts, starting your own business, making your own band merchandise and for those just interested in a new creative activity. This screen printing course also makes a great gift for those who love arts and crafts.

Please note:

• Groups and individuals are both welcome.
• The duration shall vary from two to four hours depending on the number of participants. The best way to book is to join an existing session (if any), or else use the "Request" button on this page - you'll get a response quickly.

Covid-19 measures:
We are located in a very large art studio. Our workshop space is approximately 60 square metres and well ventilated with access to disinfectant wipes and hand sanitisers. Please adhere to the 1.5m social distancing rules.

Other notes:
There's also an opportunity to join The Printroom and have access to using the facility for future printing. Please let me know in advance if you would like to purchase your screen with your design on it. This would cost an additional $40. A2 size aluminium frames are available too for $65.
This class needs a minimum of four students to run. If there are not enough students in the session we may have to reschedule.
