The Burlington City Arts Firehouse Gallery will host a Combat Paper exhibit and series of papermaking workshops from February 20 - April 11. This event will feature a traditional exhibit in the front gallery and a working paper studio in the back. We hope this interactive format, of bringing the studio and the working artists to the gallery will further the dialog about Combat Paper. Saturday afternoon papermaking workshops are planned. Opening reception is Friday, February 20th from 5 to 8 pm.
