Join Sophie Darling for a festive hands-on introduction to textile screen printing. This beginner-friendly workshop will guide you through the fundamentals of screen printing using paper stencils, helping you design and print your own unique creations.
This workshop is designed specifically for large groups and condensed into 2 hours. People will work in pairs and both create one paper stencil design. The pair will then print each other's designs to create a multi-layered print. Perfect for team building! Workshops can be tailored according to your group size.
What to Expect
By the end of the session, you’ll have created a two-color screen print using your own hand-cut stencil design. Sophie will walk you through the process with live demonstrations and inspiration from her personal archive. You'll leave with a beautiful, layered textile print, ready to be framed or transformed into a finished piece. Also expect Christmas tunes and festive cheer!
