Make your own paper to take home.
A hands-on experience for children to learn about the history and methods used in the making of paper. Children will get to dive into making recycled paper slurry and transforming it into beautiful handmade sheets using a deckle.
After crafting their own paper, they'll journey back in time to explore how the Ancient Egyptians created writing materials and learn about modern innovations like turning banana waste into eco-friendly paper products.
Participants aged 12 and under must be directly supervised by a parent or guardian.
All required materials will be provided.
