Introduction to Papermaking
taught by Alyssa Sacora/The Patchwork Underground
July 11, 2026 from 10–4:30pm
This workshop will give you hands-on experience working with several pulps to learn the basics of western style mould and deckle papermaking.
You will learn:
• how to process recycled and commercial fibers into pulp at home or in a paper studio
• what tools and equipment are needed for papermaking
• how to pull, press and dry sheets of paper
The day will start with a discussion about papermaking and will explore a variety of handmade paper samples. Afterwards, we will set up vats of pulp and make sheets of paper together. Each participant will take home a stack of sample papers. It’s up to you how you use the finished sheets.
All are welcome. No experience necessary.
