In this 2-day class you will learn to make a traditional buckram mask.

ALL MATERIALS INCLUDED.

Q- What the hell is buckram?
A- It is a millinery material that can be layered into a rigid lightweight shell. The instructor calls it the “Poor man’s Fiberglass.” It is super strong, light and great for puppets and masks.

Class 1
Tuesday, October 23, 7pm–10pm
Day 1
with Joe Seely
  • Sketch a series of masks
  • Sculpt one of them in wet clay
  • And create a shell of buckram over the sculpt

This process should take approximately 3 hrs.

Class 2
Thursday, October 25, 7pm–10pm
Day 2
with Joe Seely
  • Release and trim the shell
  • Fit the mask to your punim

Most every step of the way will be messy so wear work clothes.
