Kids Create!: Tin Can Paper Making for Ages 7-10 taught by Ellen Ferrari
September 20, 2025 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
IN PERSON CLASS
Perfect for those who have aged out of out of Kids Create: for ages 2-6!
These open ended art classes are designed for children ages 7-10 on their own taught by early childhood art specialist, Ellen Ferrari. Each class will focus on one art making process. Ellen will use examples of artwork by iconic artists to make connections to professional artists who use these processes and introduce basic concepts, materials and terms. All materials provided (real artists’ paper, ink, paints and tools!) for several projects in each class.
This Class: Tin Can Paper Making
Learn about the history of papermaking and meet Twin Cities papermakers. Use tin cans, metal pans, screens, silks, felts, sponges, wood blocks – and cotton pulp – to make circular sheets of paper! Decorate the paper with colorful paper and yarn bits, aromatic mint and cinnamon, flower petals, shredded money and more.
Classes have a limited space available and some fill quickly. Decisions about whether to cancel a class or add another session are typically made one week prior to the start of a class. If a class you are interested in is full we will have a waiting list and will contact you if a space opens up. If a class is cancelled due to low enrollment (fewer than 4 registrations) all registrations will be promptly refunded.
