TANYA SCHWARTZ'S PAPERMAKING PARTIES
House full of kids? Birthday party coming up? Just need a break? Tanya Schwartz Roeper’s Papermaking For Kids is a super-fun, hands-on, creative and messy way to keep those energetic little people having fun while learning and creating. And only the finished product—not the mess—comes home with them. Book a party/class with Tanya for up to five children for just $15 per kid, and she’ll invite them into her own professional Town Square papermaking studio to learn to:
Create paper pulp from scrap paper
Use a simple mould and deckle for forming sheets
Add colored pulp and/or dried flowers to their sheet
Pull, press and dry their handmade paper
You can schedule your one-hour to 90-minute papermaking session during the morning, afternoon or evening, and all materials are included in the price of the class. Kids can bring dried flowers to add to their artwork, and will take home their finished work—from one to six sheets of handmade paper.
