Since moving to Norwich in 1994, she has offered papermaking workshops in her studio during the summer along with other related topics. Last July, she team taught a workshop on her sculptural handmade paper lamps at the The Morgan Art of Papermaking Conservatory and Educational Foundation, Cleveland, OH, with Tony Carlone, a former student from SUNY Oneonta.
Her education includes an MFA in printmaking from Syracuse University, an MA in graphics and painting from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a BA in Studio Art from SUNY @ Potsdam. June has taught drawing and design courses at SUNY @ Oneonta 1995 – 2017 and papermaking and printmaking courses at Hartwick College between 2001 – 2002 and 2007 – 2014.
