Create & Bind: A Bookmaking Class
Friday, December 11, 6-8 pm & 12, 10 am-12 pm
Discover the art of book binding and create your own handmade book from start to finish! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn the basics of folding and assembling pages, creating a sturdy cover, and sewing or binding the pages together using traditional bookbinding techniques.
You’ll have the opportunity to choose your own papers, colors, and cover details to make a book that reflects your personal style. Your finished book can be used as a journal, sketchbook, notebook, or special keepsake. No previous bookbinding experience is necessary—just bring your creativity and enjoy learning this timeless craft!
