Hi sam,

I know this conversation is a bit old now, but was wondering if you could help me out. I’m looking for a screen printing course in Sydney too, are there any around at the moment? Be much appreciated if you could point me in the right direction.

Cheers,

Shevaun

A few years ago i learned to silkscreen and really loved it. I went on to design and produce T-shirts (never in a great quantity) for a while and with some success, until i stopped due to other work committments.
Still have a simple ‘single T-shirt’ Registering Frame, a proper Lamp Frame (for exposing screen’s emulsion), a glassed Light Box (to create, copy or modify artwork), and a considerable amount of screens (plus colours
and other ancillaries). I like to make all these things available, at a
cheap price, to yong beginners in the craft. ( Will also consider donating the equipment, but in this case preferably in the Illawarra and ONLY TO A NON PROFIT ORGANISATION, such as a recognised School,a T.A.F.E., or a Body teaching skills to the young unemployed or the needy ). You’ll have to come and collect the gear; I live in the Wollongong area, and would like to free the space in my garage A.S.A.P. ! . Ring or e-mail me : Andrea -

Hey all! I live in the Sydney are and was just curious if anybody could recommend a good short course for screen printing. Just want to learn the basics and it’s much more fun and fast learning with a group than going it alone.
