Want to create your own fanciful face covering or mysterious disguise this October?
Come join us for our mask making workshop using everyday, upcycled materials like cereal boxes, paper bags, gift wrap and newsprint. We will use collaging and paper-folding techniques to construct 3-D features as well as demonstrate ways to create different textures by reshaping paper into “fur” and “feathers”. The project is also open to your own imagination! We encourage you to bring your unique artistic flair to the table. So what will your transformation look like?
Optional: Generic mask templates will be available to download before the workshop.
