INTRODUCTION TO DYE SUBLIMATION | ONE DAY HANDS-ON WORKSHOP

Instructor: Dan Fenner
 

Date: Saturday May 13th, 2023 11:00AM - 3:00PM
(Light Snacks & Beverages Served)
 

Learn how to create metal prints, puzzles and photo gifts in this Hands-On workshop.

 

Have you ever wondered how they make things like metal prints, mugs, puzzles, coasters and more?  Learn how you can do it at home with a fairly inexpensive investment.

 

Dye sublimation is unique in the sense that it takes a special type of ink, in gas form, and through the heat process transforms it into a solid. Skipping over the liquid phase allows the gases to penetrate the material. This creates a more durable product because it is creating a permanent color bond between the “ink” and the surface being printed on.
