Traditional Papercutting: Scherenschnitte

Come learn the art of Scherenschnitte at the Hull Family Home & Farmstead!
This heritage craft of decorative paper cutting has been practiced all over the world since the invention of paper. In this class Pat Olson will teach us to cut a traditional design of flowers, watercolor it, and back it with black paper. When completed, you can take it home and pop it into your own 5” x 7” frame (frame not included).
Pat Olson is a juried member of the Historical Society of Early American Decoration, has been doing Scherenschnitte for over 40 years, and loves sharing her knowledge
with those interested in early heritage crafts.
No experience is needed. Ages 14 and older are welcome.
