Paper Arts @ The Winter School – Ballarat, Victoria

This event is slightly different …. Instead of having a mixture of fibre/textile workshops, Glenys has designed this particular series of workshops that deal with paper ONLY….
 Paper making, printing, lithographs, collage, artists books, assemblage, boxes, story telling with print and paper, encaustic… you name what can go on paper and it will be in these workshops. The event will be a more intimate affair, with the cosiness of Ballarat in the winter, great company and fabulous food and “Mulled” wine… it will all be there. Tutors are:
