Papermaking Workshop
(Kindergarten and older)
During a visit to the Museum, your students can participate in a short workshop on handmade paper. Each student will learn the process of papermaking – from a tree in the forest to the paper we use every day. They will experience paper in its liquid form – “pulp” – and learn hands-on how to turn it into their very own piece of paper.
