A Joyful Introduction to Paper-Making

$0.00

This program will offer an insight on the exciting craft and rich history of paper; we will form our own sheets from vats of cotton pulp using the mold&deckle method, press and peel them off the felts. Once learned the basics, we might add variables to the mix, such as colors and inclusions, or experiment with other fibers or recycled materials. This discipline promotes constructive perception of self and responsible sense of collaboration with others, and it is suited for all ages.
