Print(ed) Word is a collection of artist books that were created through pairing 12 local writers with 12 local print-artists who collaborated in reimagining existing texts into hand-made book forms.

Workshop: Intro to Screen Printing

A/P Studio 4025 4th Street SE, Calgary

DATES: May 5, 12, and 26
TIME: 10am - 3pm (each day)
INSTRUCTOR: Ryan Statz

COURSE SUMMARY:
Hurry before it sells out!

Screen printing (or silkscreen) is a printmaking technique where layers of ink are pulled through a mesh screen to create a wonderfully detailed image, often with multiple layers of transparent ink interacting with one another. In this comprehensive workshop, students will gain an understanding of the processes involved in creating a screen print on paper within a professional printmaking studio and will leave with the knowledge and experience required to produce work independently.

This course is suitable for all levels with no prior experience needed.
