Handmade Paper Workshop

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • July 25, 2023 / 13:30

Would you like to produce your own paper to transfer your imagination on it? In this workshop, we embark on a journey inspired by Isabel Muñoz, who searches for the origin of civilization in her works with curiosity and excitement. The children prepare paper pulp with recycling materials and produce their handmade papers by sifting the pulp which they transfer to the water-filled boat. Waiting for their paper to dry, children paint on pre-dried handmade papers inspired by the exhibition.

Instructor: Gonca Göde
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 120 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).
