Program Description

Event Details

In this second-tier screen printing workshop, you will learn how to develop and accurately print designs with multiple colors, using multiple screens and proper registration. Participants will review how to use the exposure unit, washout station, t-shirt press, and flash unit in this workshop, as well as techniques for aligning (registering) multiple layers of color to create a professional finished print. Participants will practice with designs provided by the instructor, then focus on developing and test printing their own multi-color screen print designs.

Learning Outcome

Participants will become comfortable using the exposure unit, washout station, t-shirt press, and flash unit to develop more complex designs for screen printing. Participants will learn to think and see like screen printers – breaking down and flattening images into multiple layers and become comfortable printing in multiple layers of color.
