Ages 8-adult

Join us for this fun new class!
Create your own beautiful piece of custom art.
Learn more about a type of art that has been passed down for years.

Hand-cut paper is a traditional art in many cultures. The Polish folk art form is called Wycinanki. Wycinanki were pasted on furniture or roof beams as decoration, hung in windows, and given as gifts.

Students will learn techniques including:
cutting
clipping
punching
tearing
carving of paper
nalepianki (multiple layers are glued together as they create their own Wycinanki)

In addition to techniques and design elements students will learn a little history while creating one-of-a-kind artwork.
