Handmade Paper Workshop May 14, 2011

The process of paper-making becomes a tactile artistic experience for students of any age in this 6-hour workshop. Basic techniques taught in this hands-on class include pulling paper, creating texture in the paper, pulp painting, embedding, molding and embossing. An exhibiting artist herself, Carol aims to inspire her students to develop papermaking into an art form. Students will learn the history of handmade paper, different processes of making paper, how to make paper at home, and about projects for using your handmade paper. Carol's work will be on display in the Education Center 2nd Floor Gallery from April 15 to June 23, 2011. Call 665-2492 x 317 to reach the Registrar's desk. Please note that this phone may not be manned when you call, but messages will be returned within one business day.
