Gemeinde Pfaffenschlag bei Waidhofen an der Thaya Events in May, 2025

What will you get up to?
In this workshop you will learn how 
Printed by Us
, a Social Enterprise as part of 
The Archer Project
 utilises the craft of hand screen-printing to empower and rehabilitate previously homeless individuals.
During the session you will screen-print your own t-shirt 
(available sizes XS to 5XL)
 with a choice of one of two 'Printing Positive Change' designs, as well as a pack of 4 greeting cards. This will also give you an insight into how both textile and paper screen-printing differs.
This is an introductory course, aimed at all skill levels as we focus on the mindful benefits of screen-printing and how it is used as a vehicle for positive change.
All materials will be provided.
What are the mindful benefits?
While screen printing is undeniably a technical process, it also has therapeutic benefits. Art and mental health have many intersections!
By focusing on each careful pull of the squeegee, you’re invited to be fully engaged in the act of creation, which can serve as a mental break and a way to recharge.
Studies show that engaging in creative activities can reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. It can even be used as a tool to process trauma. Artistic processes—even ones as technique-focused as screen printing—offer a productive way to process emotions, whether through visual expression or simply by providing a calming routine.
Becca Gurney of Art & Design faculty at Saint Michael’s College notes, “
It takes patience. You have to slow down with it. There is no way for it to be instant. A piece of taking care of your mental health is slowing down and being in the moment. Screen Printing allows you to do that.
”
Who are Printed by Us?
From ink to income…
Printed by Us is a community-driven initiative focused on creating supported employment opportunities to help vulnerable adults lead more fulfilling lives.
Combining the power of screen printing and creativity with a passion for social purpose, we produce high-quality screen-printed products that carry a deeper meaning.
Our team collaborate with independent artists to bring their designs to life, creating unique, handcrafted items. Each product is carefully crafted using organic and sustainably made materials, with a focus on ethical production methods.
As a Social Enterprise, all our profits go back into running more screen printing workshops, developing our project and supporting more vulnerable adults through professional development.
Our latest venture involves opening up our print-room for external workshops; Learn how we use screen-printing to develop skills and confidence and leave with a t-shirt and a pack of cards, Printed by You!
