Empowering Creativity Through DTF Printing

Help me give my students a Direct to Film printing lab for the Gifted and Talented STEM Classroom.

  • $1,283 goal

My Project

Direct to Film (DTF) Printing in the classroom provides hands-on experiences that help students explore various design concepts, experiment with colors, and create patterns that provide them with an outlet to express thoughts and emotions while sparking curiosity, boosting self-confidence, and enhancing problem-solving abilities.

By incorporating DTF printing in my classroom, students can learn valuable technical skills; such as how to use design software to create graphics, how to use different fabrics, and how to operate the printing equipment.

This will give them skills that can last a lifetime!

DTF printing helps to foster an entrepreneurial mindset and will help students explore viable career paths! DTF printing in the classroom can help students become better thinkers, citizens, and creative leaders of tomorrow!
