Bound for Books | Book Arts | JUNE

Treat yourself to 5 days of creative behavior! Students will spend the first couple of days learning a variety of book forms from folded structures to hand sewn exposed and enclosed spine books. We will also learn about the nature of Artist's Books and the infinite ways we can turn ordinary scraps or personal keepsakes into expressive and unique artist books or sculptural objects. By the end of the week students will have made their own book cloth and decorative paper and will have created not only beautiful blank books for writing and sketching, but also artist’s books that incorporate found objects, image transfers, collage, rubber stamps, printmaking, watercolor and more. You are bound to fall in love with your own creative powers when you let book arts lead the way!
