About the Workshop

This two-hour workshop will cover the basics of putting images on screens, ink mixing, and how to effectively use a squeegee to get ink through the screen and print an image. The focus is on printing on paper, which is essentially the same process as printing on t-shirts. Everyone will get many chances to print, and you’ll have a deluxe, one-of-a-kind, two-color poster to take home!

About the Instructor

Robby Poore is a graphic designer, musician, DJ, and screen printer based in Chapel Hill, NC. He has a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts from the University of New Mexico in painting, drawing, and printmaking and has been screen printing punk rock t-shirts and oddball prints since 1982.
