Hands on Paper Tour Experience

PAPER TOURS HAVE RESUMED

The safety and wellbeing of our visitors, staff, our volunteers and the community is our top priority .  Please adhere to the safety and hygiene practices that have been put into place.

Paper… it is used every day; writing, reading, information, creative genius… have you ever thought about what goes into something used so frequently?

Burnie has a 75 year tradition in paper making, which turned a seaside village into a booming industrial pulp and paper town.  The industrial factory now closed, the city’s association with paper continues today through Creative Paper Tasmania where you can experience an interactive hands-on papermaking tour.

Be introduced to this ancient art at the Creative Paper factory in its present day, ultra-modern setting at Makers’ Workshop. The 30-minute tour takes visitors on the illuminating journey of a material that is used in everyday life.

Choose a memento with an Australian animal water mark as a reminder of the experience.

Browse through the retail shop for the perfect souvenir, DIY packs and paper supplies.
