Reuben Brown—T-Shirt Stenciling Workshop

T-Shirt Making Workshop

Thursday 26th June, 3 - 6pm

Spray-painting stencil t-shirts has long been a tool of resistance and self-expression in the contexts of protest, particularly in marginalised communities, as a means to convey bold, urgent messages. All stencil imagery has been pulled from ephemera unearthed during this research project; signs, logos, flyers, tiny fragments of nights that might otherwise be forgotten. The workshop hopes to celebrate those fleeting histories, giving new life to overlooked objects and inviting them to speak again.

Materials will be provided, but attendees are also encouraged to bring their own t-shirts, bags, fabrics - anything that you’d like to transform. With a hands-on DIY approach, attendees are invited to stencil, spray and create the t-shirts themselves and is an opportunity to make something entirely unique whist embracing the same DIY ethos that has defined Irish nightlife culture over the past few decades. The workshop is free, drop-in and no booking is required.
