Experience the magic of marbling firsthand with this in-person workshop!
Learn the basic process of paper marbling with acrylics, including recipes for the various components of the process. Make four basic patterns (stones, moire/waved, git-gel, and nonpareil), explore seasonal color palettes, and take home your own marbled papers ready to be used in bookbinding and other arts. Participants will leave the workshop with the confidence to work independently at MCBA's Marbling Labs.
Wear clothes that can get dirty and non-slip, supportive, water-resistant shoes (i.e., rubber boots, garden clogs, etc.).
Take a deep-dive into paper marbling and register for Marbling Focus: Stones & Moire (Weekday Intensive) (6/10), and Marbling Focus: Bouquet Patterns (Weekday Intensive) (6/11) for an intensive learning experience. By the end of the week, you will have gorgeous sheets of marbled paper and the confidence to practice your skills independently in Marbling Labs.
Level: Beginner. All skill levels are welcome.
Certificate: 6 hours, Category A or D
