We had a wonderful day learning how to make the (Gaillardia) seed embedded paper that will eventually become 500o laser cut silhouettes of the Western Bumblebee! Part of the installation that will be at the Kelowna Art Gallery this summer. We’ll be doing paper making workshops in the community over the next few months to get ready for the show.
Jaymie Johnson from the Richmond team came out to train us and this afternoon I took her to visit the site for the Pollinator Pasture. Here are a few pics from the afternoon! Stay tuned for more pictures of the paper making process
