Waikanae Arts and Crafts Society
PAPERMAKING WORKSHOP
Make your own paper from native harakeke fibre to provide a unique canvas for your artworks. You will learn how to pull sheets of paper from wet pulp, and how to couch the wet paper onto felts for pressing and drying.
Using our fine-grade pulp, you will be able to make paper ranging in sizes and varying in thickness from tissue paper to card. The resulting paper has a light straw colour and its own unique texture and feel.
Fine-grade harakeke paper is unsized and suitable for printmaking, drawing, calligraphy and more. The paper will be pressed and dried at the workshop and sent out to participants once ready, usually within 1 week after the workshop.
When: Friday, 9th June 10am-1pm
Tutor: Rob Kennedy
Spaces left: 6
Fee: $40
All materials are included.
