Papermaking with Mary Milelzcik

Tuesday, 3/15 and Thursday, 3/17 (2 classes)

9:30 AM–11:30 AM

Ages 7-12

Class Description:

Keiki will view the ‘āina around us with a new perspective, as they use flowers, native plants, and even invasive plants to make paper. Recycled paper pulp embedded with flowers and other plant materials will be used to make paper for writing and art. We’ll also make handmade seed papers embedded with flower or herb seeds (instructions on how to plant included). Local earth pigments, plant dyes, and handmade marking tools will be used to embellish the papers. In the second class we will focus on utilizing pulp made from plants (lemongrass, lauhala, and ginger) to be formed into sheets of paper.  

 

All supplies included.
