Workshops

All our workshops are designed to offer you high-quality instruction and information in a relaxed and friendly setting. Ideas can be discussed and projects undertaken gradually at the pace of the student. Small group sizes and an informal atmosphere mean that you can learn from practice, observation, and discussion with other students. Workshops are held in our shop’s studio space, unless otherwise specified. Check back often for event dates and schedules. WE ARE 1976 loves to collaborate with artists, schools, art clubs, and other organizations for workshops. Please contact us for more information.

 

Paper Marbling Workshop with Paper Nerds

Monday, June 14, 2010



By popular request, Paper Nerds are back Saturday, June 19th for our first paper
marbling workshop! In paper marbling, delicate, swirled smoke-like patterns are
produced on paper when colors of ink or paint are floated on the surface of the water.
In this workshop, you'll learn to make a size bath for floating colors with carrageenan,
which is an extract from red seaweeds. We will be marbling various papers for use as
bookmarks, greeting cards, gift tags, wrapping papers, and a thousand other possibilities.
We'll also be trying our hands at marbling different fabrics.
All supplies will be included, but be sure to wear some studio clothes or bring an apron.

DATE: Saturday, June 19th, 11am to 1pm
Workshop Costs: $65 (and includes all materials)
REGISTRATION REQUIRED. because limited space available (8 students)
