The next Board of Directors meeting will be at 10:30 AM on November 21, 2016.  It will take place at Emerson House.

Meet artist, author and speaker Helen Hiebert. Helen is a gifted paper artist who has written 5 how to  books on paper making and crafting it into works of art. Her work has been exhibited around the country in numerous shows and solo exhibits.

“In Hiebert’s hands, paper becomes an alternately muscular and fragile material capable of enigma, mystery and beauty. She crafts small-scale works that suggest the influence of architecture and the landscape: radial patterns, hexagonal shapes, various undulating forms that resemble the waves of sand found in the endless desert.” —  DK Row, The Oregonian

Helen will talk about paper making from plants. She has a studio near Vail, and offers paper making workshops. Check out her website here.
