Brannon to host paper-making class
A paper-making Creating Community Workshop will be held at noon Saturday, May 16, at the Jackson County Public Library in Sylva.
Ever wonder how paper is made? The class will be exploring the process of hand papermaking using a variety of plant fibers. Dillsboro book artist Frank Brannon will be showing the process. Wear some clothes you don't mind getting wet, as well as non-slip rubber-toed shoes. The workshop is limited to 16 participants. Call the library to register.
Brannon is a graduate of the M.F.A. in the Book Arts Program at the University of Alabama and is proprietor of SpeakEasy Press. A member of the Southern Highland Craft Guild, he is a printmaking instructor with Southwestern Community College in Western North Carolina and an adjunct book arts instructor with Western Carolina University.
This event is co-sponsored by the Friends of the Jackson County Public Library.
