Using drawing, text, material and photo based imagery you will learn how to create and print multi coloured screen prints.

Then there will be the opportunity to learn how to extend your designs with paper stencilling and screen mono printing. There is also the opportunity to learn printing onto textiles. 

The workshop will introduce you to all the equipment needed to continue screen printing at home and in a professional printing studio. 

If you have already had some printing experience you can come to the workshop to develop any new ideas or pieces of work you've been wanting to print.

There courses are limited to 5 people per workshop so everyone can get the most out of the weekend. Book now to confirm your space. the course fee is £90 unless you have a studio at the Island art space in which case it's £80 for the weekend.
