Come fold origami, cut a paper silhouette, and create a paper doll chain as you discover the rich history of paper in family life. Enjoy intricate paper art made by children’s book illustrators Giles Laroche and Mary Newell DePalma as well as historic pieces of artwork. Marvel at sheet of one-dollar bills printed in 1928 on Crane Paper Co. and try to decipher 18th and 19th century cursive handwriting.
