Papercut lightbox workshop
Create a 3D piece of intricate art to take home with you.
A papercut lightbox is a magical way of creating a three- dimensional piece of art, using light to enhance the hand-cut layers and cast beautiful shadows.
In this 3.5 hour workshop, you will be taught the basics of paper cutting, including how to use a scalpel safely and the principles behind making a lightbox.
A wide-range of templates are available to choose from to create and build your own multi-layer A5 lightbox.
All the equipment you need is included and no previous experience of drawing or papercutting is needed.
