Past Printmaking Classes

This class will introduce you to three basic methods of screen printing: stencil, screen filler, and emulsion. You will learn techniques and tools necessary to use our studio facilities as well as a crash course in photoshop and transparency photo printing for rendering images to use for screenprinting. There are many possibilities with screenprinting hand drawn images and digital images so come prepared with some broad ideas of what kind of imagery you want to make and be ready to take notes. A good start for image references is Pinterest. Once you have completed this class you will be able to schedule time in the print studio on your own.

Printmaking Instructional Open Studio is for those who have taken Intro to Screenprinting or Intro to Relief Printing, or are able to show they have adequate past experience in screenprinting or relief printing. The goal of our Instructional Open Studio is to provide a space for printmakers to continue using the methods and techniques they’ve learned in class to make prints with an instructor present to answer questions and provide help when needed. During the hours devoted to Instructional Open Studio, students may come in and work freely. This is not a led class. We hope to create an environment where students can experiment and get creative while having a community of support!
