Spots still available in upcoming papier-mâché workshop

Tusculum College’s Doak House Museum will offer classes in papier-mâché sculpture on April 23 and 30, from 9 a.m. to noon.

According to Dollie Boyd, director of museums at Tusculum College, papier-mâché art is a fun way to create a variety of sculptures, from masks to piñatas. “With this lightweight, easy to use medium, the only limit is your imagination,” she said.

Participants will learn the basics of papier-mâché, from making armature to sculpting and painting the finished project. This class will focus on creating a decorative wall medallion.

Materials will be provided. The class is open to the public, ages 12 and up, for a fee of $30. Space is limited and reservations are required. For more information and reservations, contact Dollie Boyd at the Doak House Museum dboyd@tusculum.edu or 423-636-8554.
