LOCAL AND NATURAL PAPERMAKING **This course is now full. We're sorry for any inconvenience. In this two-day workshop students will learn to make paper by hand from a variety of natural and recycled fibers from the Pikes Peak region. Starting with yucca, iris, and discarded paper and cardboard pulps, we will learn the simple steps involved in turning these into beautiful, functional paper. Students will leave the course with both many sheets of useable paper, and the knowledge of how to continue to make paper in their own kitchens.
