This is a two day workshop, beginning Saturday December 7th 1 to 4 and Sunday December 8th 1 to 4.

All paper is made from plants and although most people think of paper as coming from trees there are many different fibers that can be used including many local plants. In this workshop we will learn what fibers are best as well as the process of reducing the plant into usable pulp. the second half of the workshop on Sunday will be dedicated to forming sheets of paper with the pulp we made and observing the differences in the sheets of paper. Some of the fibers we will use are Japanese kozo (from the mulberry tree) cedar fiber, corn husks, hemp and possibly yucca.

Workshop Fee, $50 for two days Materials fee $10
