You have probably heard the term “screenprinting” in reference to novelty t-shirts, but the same process can be used to make art on paper. In this summer sampler, we will demonstrate the basics of screenprinting and give you a chance to try it on your own.
Although fine art screenprinting often involves multiple layers and photographic images that are beyond the scope of a 30-minute activity, this simplified sampler will give you a sense of what it is like to work with screenprinting materials. You’ll work with a blank screen, paper stencils, and a squeegee to create abstract, colorful, one-of-a-kind prints.
All materials are included in our Summer Samplers so that you can walk away with your very own unique print in less than 30 minutes!
