Join Edinburgh artist Papercut Punk and bring some gentle light to the dark Winter days with this papercut lantern workshop. After learning the basics of this mindful and relaxing art form you will go on to make some lovely tea light lanterns either from the templates provided or of your own design.
Go simple, go wild, make for yourself or as Christmas gifts - you will be guided all the way and come away with pieces of paper joy and possibly a new obsession!
The Town Hall is wonderful but old and the workshop is up a few steps. 18+ due to sharp blades.
