Over the course of two days, participants will explore paper decoration and mixed media to create two handmade artist books.
- Day One: Create a “Letter Book” that serves as a time capsule to reflect on future goals.
- Day Two: Create a “Map Book” that looks at past personal experiences.
Clear instructions, handouts and demonstrations will give participants the skills and tools to make unique artists books on their own. Students will leave with two unique finished projects.
This 2-day workshop takes place Sat & Sun, July 27 & 28, from 10am–2pm daily at the Hailey Classroom.
