About this Workshop:

‘Tis the season to make something festive! Using pre-cut foam stencils and cookie cutters, we’ll create fun, winter-themed decorations using colorful paper pulp. From paper gingerbread men to snowflakes (and more!), your creations will be perfect for stringing onto garlands or hanging as standalone ornaments. 

Level: Beginner – no previous experience necessary!

Registration closes November 25, 2025 and all materials are provided.

  • (optional) Any personal cookie cutters you’d like to use as stencils
  • (optional) Personal apron (we’ll have extras)—waterproof recommended, but a heavy kitchen apron will work too
  • (optional) Notepad and pencil to take any notes

YOUR INSTRUCTOR:

Isabella Whitfield is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses site-responsive installation, papermaking, and sculpture. She makes meditative, performative work that considers the contradictory relationships between the environment, physical homeland, human labor, and historical object functionality. Whitfield’s projects often contain an act of collaborative generosity, inviting the viewer to become part of the work through physical immersion or participatory artistic creation. She has a Bachelors in Studio Art and Politics from the University of Virginia and has exhibited major works at New City Arts, Ruffin Gallery, the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Museum and InLight 2021 with 1708 Gallery. She recently completed residencies with the Visual Arts Center of Richmond and OxBow School of Art. Learn more about her work at www.isabellawhitfield.com.
