About the Workshop:
This hybrid class at Center for Book Arts is taught by instructor Hadley Vogel. Select “in-person” or “virtual” participation upon registration!
This course is ideal for artists with a collection of prints or original works of art, like drawings, that are uniform in size and would like to bind them into a single catalog.
In this course artists will be creating cloth hinges attached to their print and then exploring a new technique to create a very minimal binding that does not require any special equipment. These books can be bound at home and create very sleek, minimal and elegant presentations of their work.
