Have a go at printing with dyes in this one day workshop at Print Clan.

What will happen during the workshop?
You will choose between printing onto a silk scarf or a lampshade. Through drawing exercises and paper collage you will be guided through planning an individual design, which you will have time to work on and refine. Once this is finalised you will be shown how to bring this design to life using the screen printing process with dyes: playing with texture, colour and shape. After the workshop is finished our technician will steam the fabric for you, which will be ready to collect from our studio the following week. You will have a bespoke silk scarf to wear or a lampshade to display in your home.

What experience do I need?
As you are working with a specialised process basic knowledge of the screen printing process is preferable.

You have the choice between printing on a silk scarf or on a lampshade (full construction kit will be provided) which are both provided, please choose your option at checkout.
