[Origami] not quite origami -- Botanical Handmade Papermaking Workshop, Princeton NJ

2015-07-23 Thread Karen Reeds
For any NJ/NYC/Philadelphia-area folders who have been wanting to learn how
to make handmade paper, here's a chance to do it in really interesting
surroundings. Morven (http://morven.org/) is  a beautiful historic
house/museum and garden, close to the Princeton University campus and
downtown Princeton.  For an all-day workshop, the cost seems pretty
reasonable to me.

HI,

Does anyone know how to contact Jack Killeen? I wish to ask his
authorization to include one of his pictures in the article I'm writing.

I don't have an account in any of them so I contact him like that.


Thank you guys.
