A sunny day outside Van Pelt Library. A group of people are gathered around "the Button."

In September, Tessa participated in a conservation-centered tour of papermaking and other related crafts in Japan, along with a small group of conservators and allied professionals from the US. The primary purpose of this tour was to gain a greater understanding of papermaking and its cultural significance in Japan. Join us to find out more about what Tessa learned.
