View all threadsREPAIRING CHILDREN’S BOOKS
with Juliayn Coleman
6 nights • Aug 29–Sept 4, 2021
Sunset Lodge on Lake Damariscotta,
Jefferson, Maine
Think your damaged books are beyond repair?
Think again, and learn how to make them readable with us.
We will work with torn pages, ripped covers, and broken spines to rebuild damaged children’s books.
Instead of making new covers to paper over the damage, we’ll respect the integrity
of the original material to strengthen it for a new life of readability.
In the process, we’ll get to work with the colorful images and text of historic children’s books.
Workshop space is limited to 10 students.
