About Botanical Papermaking with Joanne Hoang
Join Joanne Hoang for this beginners/intermediate 5-week course on making botanical paper! Participants will learn the entire process of how to make paper from locally harvested plants, and how to create a sculpture with your handmade paper and natural materials. The course will begin by harvesting plants. From there, Joanne will guide participants through the different stages (cook, rinse, beat, form, press, dry) it takes to create a piece of paper. Participants will also learn how to dye paper pulp using local tannins and natural dyes from the garden. On the last day, participants will use the paper they've created as a material to cover their paper sculpture.
Sliding Scale $100 to $200 for 5 weeks plus materials
