Pop-Up Paper Play: Sculptural Paper Mechanics

Welcome to Pop-Up Paper Play: Sculptural Paper Mechanics!

Explore the magic of moving paper! In this playful workshop, you’ll experiment with pop-up techniques like wheels, accordions, flaps, and pull-tabs to create interactive, abstract paper sculptures.

Using colorful paper as our medium, we’ll focus on movement, structure, and the mechanics behind these dynamic designs. Whether you’re new to paper crafts or looking to level up your skills, this is a great way to dive into hands-on creativity. Come ready to cut, fold, and bring your ideas to life!

Join us for a hands-on workshop where you can learn how to create amazing paper sculptures using clever mechanics. Get ready to unleash your creativity and make unique paper creations that pop up and move. No experience necessary, just bring your imagination and enthusiasm!

The event will take place on Thu Apr 17 2025 at 6:00 pm at Artisans PNW.
