Join us in the historic area to travel back in time through special crafting demonstrations.

Crafting known as paper quilling, paper rolling, or paper filigree, is a decorative art form that involves the hands-on manipulation of colored paper strips to create designs.

Even though this craft is centuries old, with known roots in the 15^th century and some evidence before that, it continues to be an art form loved by all generations.

Demonstrations will take place near the Brick Kitchen.
