Paper Pulp Painting and Casting Demonstrations
Join Isabella Whitfield, VisArts’ 2024 Gibbs Street Resident and current exhibiting artist, for free studio demonstrations exploring the art of paper pulp painting and casting. Choose one session or come to both—each offers a unique look at her creative process:
Sunday, April 27 | 1-3 PM: Paper Pulp Painting Demonstration
Sunday, May 4 | 1-3 PM: Paper Casting Demonstration
Attendees are welcome to watch, ask questions, and take notes as she shares her expertise. Each session offers something different, so come to one or both!
This program is offered in connection with Whitfield’s exhibition, All My Children Are Good People (Gibbs Street Gallery, March 21-May 4, 2025).
Please note: This isn’t a hands-on workshop; participants won’t be creating anything.
This program is free, but your support makes it possible. A small gift makes a big impact—advancing the arts, helping artists thrive, and sparking creative growth.
A suggested donation of $5–$20 will help us keep offering the programs you love! Donate here ->
