Paper Dress Workshop

Join artist Rebecca Ryan for a hands‑on workshop exploring the art of paper dress‑making, transforming vintage sewing‑pattern paper into beautiful sculptural forms.

Discover how the delicate textures, printed lines and markings of old patterns can be folded, shaped and layered to create your own framed Art Deco or 1950s‑style paper dress — giving new life to materials that might otherwise be discarded.

Participants are warmly welcome to bring their own vintage sewing patterns, collage materials, photos or small sentimental items to incorporate into their piece.

All materials provided. No sewing or art experience required. Suitable for all experience levels.
