2:00 - 4:00pm - Tiny Tea Bag Dress Book

Instructor: Ruby Silvious

Cost of the workshop is $60, this includes material fees.

Participants will create a mini-book using one sheet of paper. Pages will be filled with cut dresses made from used tea bags, found imagery and beautiful papers, to create a 4.25” x 2.75” mini book. Bring a pair of scissors and, if you wish, any vintage paper or collage materials in sepia shades that are meaningful to you. All other supplies will be provided. Join us and impress yourself!

Ruby Silvious is internationally recognized for her miniature paintings and collages on the used tea bag. She is the author of 363 Days of Tea: A Visual Journal on Used Teabags, and Reclaimed Canvas: Reimagining the Familiar. Her paintings on tea bags, some inspired by her art residences and travels around the world, have been featured in numerous publications including CNN Travel, Vogue Italia, Cosmopolitan China, Disney Malaysia, The Guardian, Der Spiegel, Good Morning America/ABC News, National Geographic Kids, and the internationally syndicated Ripley’s Believe it or Not.
