Mask Making – build your own theater mask (online workshop)
9. Januar 2027 - 17. Januar 2027
Masks can be fashioned with simple materials and basic craft supplies. They can be worked on intensively over a short period or built slowly at your own convenience. In this online course we’ll stretch the process over several days to allow for reflection and proper drying time of each phase. Each participant will have time to complete one half or full mask. On the last day we’ll test out and play with the masks.
A list of supplies needed will be sent out well before the course.
Hot on the heels of Steve Jarand’s new mask book „PaperFace“, don’t miss this in person teaching of the specialist on mask and impro.
