SUMMARY:THE LANGUAGE OF PAPER-CUTTING  – A Display of Workshop Creations
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Friends House Arts Program\nThe Language of Paper Cutting was a hands-on workshop where participants learned from internationally known guest artist Mr. Shanye Huang his techniques for painting and preparing rice paper and then cutting the paper into shapes that reveal his connection to nature and his optimism for human existence.
