A visit to Dobbin Mill

On Saturday, October 15, on the Greenpoint/Williamsburg boarder, members at the Friend level and above of the Center visited the studios and home of Robbin Ami Silverberg and Andras Böröcz.   Guests toured Dobbin Mill where Robbin makes her own handmade paper. The tour also included a visit to her garden where plants are grown to be converted into raw material for papermaking.  The group also toured Andras's and Robbin's studios, where both shared and explained several new works.  Guests enjoyed a lovely reception in their home that was graciously sponsored by Osteria Il Paiolo, a local favorite restaurant, at 106 North 6th Street.

This event is one in series of private events for members at the Friend ($100) level and above. The next tour will be in January at the private Library of David S. Rose. If you would like to upgrade your membership and become a Friend so you may enjoy these free activities, please contact the Center at (212) 481-0295
