Paper Making with Mikhala Kaseweter September 6, 10am-12pm
Join Northwest Vermont Solid Waste District’s Mikhala Kaseweter on Saturday, September 6, to try your hand at papermaking. We’ll be turning old scrap paper and junk mail into fresh sheets, recycling paper using the same process that paper mills do but on a small scale. You’ll learn about the pulping process, spend time pulling sheets using a mold and deckle, and connect this process to NWSWD’s own work in Franklin County. There’s ample room for artistic experimenting. Prepare to get splashed on!”
“Mikhala Kaseweter (she/they) serves as Program Coordinator for Northwest Vermont Solid Waste District, providing sustainability education to Vermont residents and businesses both online and in person. Under her leadership, NWSWD has expanded programming to include recycling workshops (e.g., papermaking, mending) and community partnerships, such as an upcycled art show hosted by Swanton Arts Council. Outside of work, Mikhala can be found eating, thrifting, and befriending nonhuman animals.”
