About

During this introductory workshop, participants will learn about bookbinding’s history, terminology, and tools of the trade before learning how to create a basic accordion fold and pamphlet stitch. Building from those forms, participants will explore more complex models (including Coptic stitch) and also will incorporate soft and hardcovers. Participants will expand on and experiment with their newfound skills by making a book of choice during the workshop. No prior experience required! Registration deadline: 2/10/24

Student Supply List: - cutting mat - x-acto blade - notebook - pencil - decorative paper (optional)
