Handmade Paper Workshop

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • October 7, 2023 / 13:30

While visiting the Intersecting Worlds: Ambassadors and Painters and Osman Hamdi Bey exhibitions with a guide, children are inspired by the magical world of orientalist paintings. They prepare paper pulp using recycled materials and produce their handmade papers by sifting the pulp, which they then transfer to a water-filled basin. While waiting for their paper to dry, children paint on pre-dried handmade papers, drawing inspiration from the exhibitions.

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).

“A nameless Egyptian fresco, an African idol or a vase from Crete: we should behold Pirosmani’s art among them. Only this way it is possible to conceive it genuinely … …You see Pirosmani – you believe in Georgia”.
