Introduction to Screen Printing
Overview
In this Introduction to Screen Printing workshop, you'll learn the basics of stencil-based printmaking, where you'll push ink through a mesh screen onto paper or fabric using a squeegee. You'll see how areas blocked by a stencil prevent ink from passing through, creating your printed design. Screen printing is widely used in art, textiles, and graphic design, and in this workshop you'll focus on simple hand-printed techniques that are accessible to beginners.
