The InkStorm Screenprinting Collective is a group of individuals working to provide affordable public access to the skills and equipment necessary for screenprinting.
We addresss the lack of affordable studio and workshop space in Halifax, inviting everyone to find creative expression through printed matter.
We strive to create a community space for building ideas and collaborating on projects.
We are not for profit. All fees go towards rent and supplies.
PRICING (all sliding scale) We acknowledge that everyone comes with different experience and skills. If you have little to no experience, we kindly ask you sign-up for the workshop and encourage you to start! If you are an experienced screenprinter, we still need to walk you through the general workings of the studio.
