UICB Experience Session: Papermaking

Sponsored by Vamp & Tramp, Booksellers, LLC. THIS SESSION IS SOLD OUT.

Many who care for rare books and manuscripts have a knowledge of papermaking but some have never had the opportunity to actually make a sheet. The experience can be informative and is sometimes revelatory. Join Tim Barrett in making your own sheet of Western and Japanese-style paper followed by a brief PowerPoint presentation on the history and technique of both crafts. A wide range of paper specimens will be on display and available for handling.

NOTE: This session has limited seating and requires advance registration and a fee of $25.
