Papercut Workshop: Tradition Takes Shape
About this Event
Join artist and facilitator Molly Almeida for a hands-on papercutting workshop inspired by Ketubah Renaissance, and turn the patterns, symbols and intricate details of the exhibition into a work of your own.
Start with inspiration from the gallery, then learn the basics of papercutting as Molly guides you through planning, cutting and composing your design. Play with shape, pattern and negative space while exploring the decorative traditions found throughout ketubah art. Follow your creative instincts and leave with a one-of-a-kind work on paper made by you.
No papercutting experience needed. Come ready to learn a new technique, get creative and experience Ketubah Renaissance through a maker’s eyes.
Ages 14 years and up welcome. Space is limited, so reserve your spot, grab a pair of scissors and get cutting!
