DIY Queer Paper Mache Activist & Icons

Paper mache, which is derived from papier-mâché, or "chewed paper" in French, is a sculpting medium composed of paper pieces that have been bound together by an adhesive paste.  For this activity, we will be using these techniques to make your own paper mache of a Queer Activist or Icon.
