With generous funding from the Campus Programming Committee Mini Fund, the Horn Press is pleased to present its first PAPER MARBLING WORKSHOP.

The workshop includes three hours of instruction, followed by (at least) three hours of free time for your own practice. Each participant will be able to take home many sheets of marbled paper that can be used in all kinds of craft and book art projects. You will find that paper marbling is addictive! Wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Also note: we will be using acrylic paints, and the process is MESSY. Do not wear anything you care about keeping neat - including shoes!
