This is a single-session live online workshop. There will not be a class recording for later viewing.

Masking and revealing is essential to storytelling and will be played with to create a stage in the form of a tunnel book, multi-layered card or artist book. Students will learn different techniques of papercutting, how to design a stage for a story to develop, and will finish the class with an understanding of how to develop their own intricate theaters.
 
Stop animation, video inclusion, and live performance will be discussed. Tips, tricks and resources will be provided. All experience levels welcome, but students should be aware that class will move quickly.

Community Workshops are limited to 30 students with a low class fee to foster accessibility.
