Wild Things: Papier-Mâché Workshop

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Come craft your own crazy creatures at this library workshop series guided by artist Henry Crane! Participants will design, construct, and decorate papier-mâché animals, mythical beings, and more.

The creativity workshops will take place in the Education, Philosophy, and Religion Department, Room 205 at Parkway Central Library. Each workshop will begin at 5:30 p.m. and wrap up by 7:30 p.m. All materials will be provided, and we encourage participants to work with recycled objects.

This is a 3-part workshop, and we recommend attending at least 2 sessions:

Tuesday, March 4: research, design, construction, papier-mâché (paper mache)

Tuesday, March 11: construction, papier-mâché, painting

Tuesday, March 18: papier-mâché, painting, decoration

We recommend attending all 3 sessions to complete your project. You're welcome to join us at a later session; please come ready with your idea. Drying time is necessary between the papier-mâché and painting sessions.
