February 28th, March 6th, & March 13th 2024Eastern paper, often identified as washi, is characterized by its both thin and strong properties and is commonly made from the inner bark of the mulberry bush. The method we will use, although Japanese, is applicable to most plant bast fibers. This class will go over all the steps in making paper in this method, starting with pulp preparation: cooking and scraping the fibers clean and then beating them into pulp. We will then form sheets using the nagashizuki method with flexible screens as it is practiced in Japan. We will make as many sheets as time allows from both abaca (known as either Manila Hemp or banana fibers) and NC kozo (mulberry fibers). All supplies included. 3 Classes.

Join Sarah Ann Austin of Legacy Prints and Paper for a hands-on workshop on the traditional craft of broom making.
In collaboration with Art for All NC Nonprofit, and with special thanks to Bay Six for providing the venue:
Learn to create two beautiful and functional Appalachian brooms: the turkey wing whisk broom and the tiny loop broom. The turkey wing broom is a stunning example of Appalachian folk art. Its unique shape and intricate construction make it a conversation piece as well as a useful tool. The tiny loop broom is a smaller, more delicate broom that is perfect for dusting delicate items or sweeping up small messes. Both brooms are made with natural broomcorn, a type of sorghum grass that is known for its durability and flexibility. Learn the traditional techniques for binding and shaping the broomcorn to create a sturdy and attractive broom.
This workshop is suitable for all skill levels. You will leave with a deep appreciation for the traditional craft of broom making and two beautiful and functional brooms to enjoy for years to come.
