Screenprinting at JOY Festival!
We had such a lovely time running out Screenprinting Workshop at JOY Festival!
Together, we made Working Class Creatives’ Guide to Self Organising prints - a DIY manifesto built from everything we’ve learned since starting @workingclasscreativesdatabase in 2021!
Me & @chanel.le have been running WCC as volunteers for the past few years - answering emails from our bedrooms on opposite sides of the country. We’ve now grown to over 1500 members and have worked with some incredible institutions, but at its core it’s always been about grassroots care, community and working class creativity!
This manifesto is for everyone; a reminder that you don’t need permission to start something. If we can do it, so can you.
Thank you to everyone who came and screenprinted with us! And massive thanks to @acrylicize @thearthouselive @connorrankin & @philliprhysolney for all your help & for putting on such a brilliant festival! ❤️
& @printclublondon for the screens!
& @tobycarveryprincessxoxo for being an amazing host
👚 these T-shirt and prints will be for sale soon - keep your eyes peeled if you’d like one!
Love that this started with two people answering emails from their bedrooms back in 2021 and grew into a 1500+ member community! The 'you don't need permission to start something' message is so inspiring. remove watermark online
I love how this started with two volunteers working from their bedrooms and grew into a community of more than 1,500 members. The message that you can start something meaningful without waiting for permission really stands out. I get that same sense of building from the ground up in Crossy Road, a casual arcade game where each run starts small and develops through a series of choices.
