Heartland Maker Fest

Weiskamp Screen Printing of Champaign IL, represented by Warren Bensken, was an official maker at the 2014 Heartland Maker Fest in Urbana on October 18, 2014.

What they do:

Weiskamp Screen Printing is a professional screen printing company specializing in custom apparel and products. Once or twice per semester they host a free poster workshop during which participants learn about screen printing and create their own designs. 

History:

Company founder Ed Weiskamp began printing as a hobby and has been screen printing professionally in the Champaign community since 1982.

What Bensken loves about screen printing:

Bensken is “attracted to how laborious it is.” Many people assume screen printing has become an automated process, but when you order a four-color shirt, a human being is involved in every step for every shirt.
