Event Overview

Screenprinting has been used for everything from Pop Art pieces hanging in galleries to T-shirts people are wearing on the street. But the common practice of using photography chemicals on a screen is messy and complicated.

The Mod Podge method is a simple and non-toxic alternative. Artist Dean Johnson demonstrates the technique, then guides students step-by-step as they make their own screenprints. Everything you need is provided. Each student will transfer an image to a screen and make multiple prints.

You will understand how to transfer an image to a screen using mod podge, how to run ink through the screen, and how to maintain the screen for future use. Come in with no prior experience, and walk out with the knowledge and experience to make prints at home!
