Introduction to Paper Making

Join Illustrator and textile artist Marlene Cameron to create and take home your own unique handmade paper. Marlene will show you how to form sheets of paper with pulp made from junk mail and scrap paper. You are invited to bring pressed flowers, leaves or other flat objects from home to use in embellishing and embossing your paper. Examples of ways to use your finished paper, such as cards, small books and gifts, will be displayed and explained. Printed information will be provided on low-cost options for making paper at home. Dress for creative fun and the possibility of splashing water.
