Chinese Paper Cutting

Chinese Paper Cutting In-Person

Chinese paper-cutting, or jianzhi (剪紙), is a folk art that originated in China around the sixth century AD. The art form is most strongly associated with China because paper was invented in the country – by Cai Lun in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because the cut-outs are often used to decorate doors and windows, they are sometimes referred to as chuāng huā (窗花), window flowers or window paper-cuts. In this workshop, students will learn to make creative and fun Chinese paper cutting arts.

The class is limited to 20 adult participants. Materials will be provided. To register, contact the library by calling 949-786-4001 or emailing ocpl.universitypark@occr.ocgov.com
