DamnFineDublin



 Myself, Eric Greene, Kim Willoughby and BLOCKT are putting this event on and need your help!

WHAT?
Imagine if Dublin had a brand-new screen-printing studio? One that was open to the public. A damn fine affordable place to print. A place to channel your inner Andy Warhol and create a limited edition masterpiece, screened with your own bare hands.

HOW?
That all sounds mighty fine. But how does Dublin acquire such a damn fine print studio?
Well, funny you should ask, because that's where you come in. We are planning one mega screen-printing spectacular in BLOCK T, Smithfield, to help us raise some much-needed funds.

INTERESTED?
We want to bring together Dublin’s damn finest creatives -- people just like you. This is a CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS to be a part of our screen-printed spectacular event.
A limited number of artists will be exhibited on the night with 30 signed editions of each print on sale.

WHY?
Because a Damn Fine Print studio ain’t cheap and we can’t print money….just yet.

THE BRIEF
Here's what we’re looking for:
Submit a piece of artwork in your own style inspired by the words ‘DAMN FINE DUBLIN’. Take from this what you will. It could be a stand-alone piece or a collaboration, whether you are a Artist, Illustrator, Photographer, Writer, Designer or any other creative specimen.

Poster size A3
2 Colours maximum (Black plus 1 other colour: Yellow, Red, Blue)
We will hand screen print your image on 250gsm naturalis white card.
Please send your submission as a high-res jpg along with two separate high-res colour layers to.

The official deadline is 26th October. Any technical questions, drop us a line at damnfineprint@blockt.ie

A new DAMN FINE print studio @ BLOCK T. Be part of it, make it happen!
