A creative and productive 2-day workshop for teens, aimed at those with an interest in print design. We will cover the basics of screen printing and block printing, underpinned with visual research. This is a student-driven workshop, and at the end of the class, the students will take away their own printed Tote bag and T-Shirt, learnt how to have mixed textile colours, and research their idea's through creating a mood board. We will look at some influential fashion, textile designers and printmaking artists.

$280 per person (includes all materials except t-shirts)

Using simple but effective materials we will carve a printing block to use. A carefully curated collection of textile colours will be available for you to choose from and you will learn to think like a textile designer by taking inspiration from contemporary textile artisans.

All materials will be provided to use during the workshop except the t-shirt. In the end, you will take home your printing blocks, several printed samples on cotton, and your completed printed t-shirt and tote bag.

This is a fun and creative class, and all levels of experience are welcome.
