Artist, Debra Ketchum Jircik did a papermaking residency at Woodland Progressive School in Minocqua, Wisconsin. With Debra at the helm students explored the art and craft of papermaking, making rounds for Treewhispers. Here you can see them in progress—beating Kozo by hand, forming the rounds and creatively weighting the boards to press out the water. The students also developed a creative display in the school before sending them off to the project. Great job everyone!
