About the event

Intro to Joomchi: A Korean Paper Layering Technique (NPS)
2 Saturday Workshop
August 23 & 30th
10:30 am - 1pm

Ages 14 and Up

In this two-day workshop, students will learn about the versatile nature of the traditional Korean papermaking technique Joomchi. Through the Joomchi process, multiple wet layers of Hanji (Korean mulberry paper) are agitated, squeezed, and thrown by hand to make one durable fabric-like sheet. Students will see how making various cuts, holes, and designs in their individual Hanji sheets can transform into unique and textured finished pieces! After making their Joomchi paper on the first day, students will come back to the next class and be able to alter their dry, finished work through embroidery, paper-cutting, collage, and more. This Joomchi technique has been used to make artistic two-dimensional sculptures and also functional wares such as clothes and wallets. Students are encouraged to bring any paper scraps or thread and hand-sewing supplies they would like to experiment with.
