Screen Printing - Central YMCA Club

Screen Printing on Textiles All-Day Workshop

Experience a full-day screen printing workshop to create your own custom t-shirt and have a blast!

Learn a new skill, enjoy a day of crafting, and meet new people at our all-day screen printing workshop! 

Screen printing is a method of creating an image with stencils, which are attached to mesh and stretched over a frame. Using a squeegee, ink is pulled through the stencil to create an image, then designs are cut and transferred to a t-shirt through screen printing mediums.

Your tutor will show you examples and demonstrate the screen printing process. The morning will be spent working on your design, then in the afternoon, you’ll get to work on transferring the design to your t-shirt.

Will I need any equipment or materials?
