Event Overview
Have a t-shirt idea or a graphic you’d love on a tote? This spotlight provides step-by-step instruction in printing a one-color image on fabric. We’ll start with a tutorial on screen exposure, help you set up your print station, guide you through printing, and finish by heat-setting your garments so they’re wash-safe. This is a great entry point for anyone curious about printing on fabric, and offers a foundation for larger or multi-color projects.
5pm - Doors open
5:30-8pm - Demo followed by hands-on project
8-9pm - Optional open work time
