For centuries paper has served as a quick, elegant, and economical
covering material for books. This versatile material can create
structures ranging from pocket notebooks to conservation friendly
bindings to cases durable enough for a heavily-used manual.
Students will make four binding models. Together these structures
provide a set of options that can accommodate any text block from a few
poems to a large reference work. All open enthusiastically and can be
constructed in a modestly-equipped home studio.
The online format is a series of live tutorials via Zoom. The tutorials
are recorded and the videos are available to registered students for 90
days. Students need not be present for the live sessions. Workshop fee
includes supplies, which are mailed to arrive in time for the first
session.
