All supplies provided
In this two-part workshop, artist and papermaker Steve Liggett will guide you through the joyful and surprisingly meditative process of making handmade paper rounds. These textured, earthy pieces are the heart of the Treewhispers installation, a global project celebrating our deep-rooted relationships with trees.
But it doesn’t stop there…
You’ll be joined by the ever-inspiring poet and storyteller Phetote Mshari, who’ll help coax your memories and musings into words that can be added to your handmade papers — becoming part of a larger, living artwork. Whether it’s the memory of climbing your favorite tree, planting one with a loved one, or simply basking in the stillness of a forest — this is your space to remember, reflect, and create.
Your paper pieces can be taken home, treasured, or contributed to the traveling Treewhispers installation, which continues to grow like a tree with every story added.
Come for the art, stay for the wonder. Rediscover that childlike awe. Feel the peace that only trees and creative community can offer.
No experience necessary. Just bring your stories and your love for trees.
Reserve your spot now — space is limited!
