Getting our hands dirty

Team Emily is hard at work in Toronto today! We are cutting and soaking and beating and pulling and couching and pressing and packaging the enormous amount of hand pressed flax, hemp and abaca paper that this project will require.

Meanwhile, Team Emily’s Ottawa Branch affiliates are braving the wilderness to collect the bare bones of this project, the sticks. Everything is moving along nicely.

Saturday morning we will be installing right here, 2 Daly Avenue, on the lawn of Ottawa’s Arts Court. If you are in the neighborhood feel free to pop by for a chat! The official opening party will happen the following Saturday, August 21st from 2-5 pm. Hope to see you there!
