The kids will then get to try it out at the park. It’s really fun for the young & the young at heart. This workshop is great timing for the kids on Spring Break.

Screenprinting Workshop
10am-11am
Recommended for ages 6+ (kids under 6 should be accompanied with parent).
They will learn the process of screenprinting. Luan from Xpress Tshirts (who prints our Bland & Smallkine tshrits) will be explaining the process: from preparing artwork, getting the screen made, to the actual screening of tshirts. This workshop will include a tshirt blank that they will screen a treehouse design onto with the help of the instructor. The tshirt will still need to be fully cured by putting it in your home dryer before wash & wear.
This workshop is a great opportunity to “open their eyes” about the process on how tshirts are printed. Living here in beautiful Hawaii, the tshirt is a staple to our attire for all ages.
