About
Board member Julie McLaughlin and The Morgan’s founder and Papermaker Emeritus, Tom Balbo, are setting up the vat and putting together the screens for another BigAss Papermaking master class to celebrate The Morgan’s 15-yr anniversary! Join us for an outdoor, hands-on, feet-in experience in making 6 x 8ft sheets of kozo paper. Additionally, time will be spent preparing fiber through cooking, beating, and pigmenting. Each student will have the opportunity to use large deckle boxes as well to make more individualized sheets featuring inclusions and pulp painting. As time permits, we will discuss surface treatments and uses for the large kozo sheets. Registration deadline: June 30th, 2023
