Artist Nicholas Mino will lead this captivating exploration of screen printing, an art form that dates to tenth-century China. He will introduce us to screen printing's most popular historical uses—movie posters and political agita art—and its best-known practitioners, none more famous than Andy Warhol for his depictions of Marilyn Monroe and Campbell's soup cans.

We'll spend the greater part of our time, however, creating screen prints ourselves. Nicholas will guide us step by step through the process of developing single- and multi-color works of art. Applicable to posters, shirts, tote bags, record albums, flyers, and advertising materials, screen printing is arguably the most versatile—and fun—form of art production. Do join this creative party!
