About this Event

Join us for a hands-on introduction to screen printing! In this workshop, we’ll cover the basics of the process and walk through each step of creating a screen. Using vinyl stencils, we’ll quickly make screens and print custom designs onto t-shirts. You’ll get a chance to practice setting up, inking, and pulling prints, and by the end, you’ll have your own shirt to take home.

If you’d like, you can bring a simple vector design (think bold shapes and clean lines) to use for your screen. Otherwise, we’ll have some designs ready for you to choose from. No prior experience is necessary—just bring your creativity and a t-shirt you’d like to print on. New shirts can also be purchased during the workshop.

This workshop will be taught by two instructors:

Woody Poulard is an artist/musician of Haitian descent who creates audio-reactive visual installations, generative art, and sculptural works alongside lifelong instrumental practice in saxophone and percussion. His visual practice spans digital and physical mediums including pen plotting, risograph printing, and poster design, creating tangible artifacts from algorithmic and generative processes.

Mean Gene is a member at NYC Resistor, an anti-surveillance advocate, an artist, designer, printmaker, and the head of product at a small cybersecurity startup
