Cut Loose: A Paper Engineering workshop – Kenmare

Wednesday May 20th from 5pm in Kenmare Family Resource Centre

Paper engineering is where illustration meets invention!

It’s the art of transforming flat sheets into something full of life, an innovative application of paper. Think paper that folds, pops, stands, suddenly becoming cute characters, lil houses, and tiny worlds ya can hold in yer hands.

In this workshop, we’ll build and create our way into creating paper dolls with personality and miniature 3D houses that feel almost alive.

No experience needed – just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.

It’s all about making something imaginative from the simplest material and seeing just how far a single sheet of paper can go!
