Traditional Chinese Papercutting – Children ages 5-12 and Families

November 4, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am EDT

Free

Winter is coming! Squirrels and chipmunks are busy collecting acorns and hiding them. What birds migrate or stay? How do fish survive the winter? The Montague Public Libraries invite you to try Chinese papercutting with Zhonghe (Elena) Li. Learn the history of the art and basic techniques. Choose your favorite template, from the many animals that live in and along the Connecticut River, to make your own artwork. Elena is a Cambridge multi-media artist who specializes in traditional Chinese papercutting art and watercolors. She uses art to speak for the beauty of biodiversity and honors living in harmony with nature as one. Meet in the Great Hall.

10:30—11:30 a.m. Children ages 5-12 & families;

1:00—2:30 p.m. Teens & adults
