Intro to Joomchi: A Korean Paper Layering Technique (NPS)

One day workshop
Sunday, September 29th
10am – 2pm

Ages 14 and Up

In this one-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 products! This 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.
