Join artist Aimee Lee (OC 1999) who will present a brief overview of hanji (Korean paper) and how it was used by Koreans through history, from mundane and everyday functions to enormous projects that remain as extant national treasures. Lee will share her journey traveling to Korea multiple times in search of a connection to her heritage through art, culture, and papermaking, and how that road led to creating a home for hanji in Northeast Ohio.
