In this 2-hour workshop, mask and puppet designer Clelia Scala discusses the process of designing and building a fantastical mask

Participants will learn the process of shaping and building a mask of cardboard, how to decorate the mask, and how to finish it with papier-mâché. Participants should come prepared with a loose idea of the mask that they would like to make and any additional decorative pieces they would like to add to their mask.

For all ages (though participants under 12 will require adult supervision), limited spaces.

Registered participants will need to travel to the library branch of their choosing before the workshop date to pick up a kit that includes a foam head, cardboard, paints, glue, paper, and elastics. Participants will also need to provide their own paintbrushes, hot glue, glue gun, and scissors.

Clelia Scala’s work includes mask and puppet design, installations, collage, and illustration. Her explorations into the fantastic and  uncanny stem from a lifelong engagement with tales and myths and her interest in the theme of human interaction with the natural world. 

This interactive online presentation will be held on Zoom. Registrants will be emailed the link immediately upon registration.  (Please check your Junk and Spam folders right away if you don't see the confirmation email and link in your Inbox). Participants will need to download the latest version of Zoom in advance to the device they’ll be using during the presentation.
