Course Description:

The Handmade Book is a studio-based, hands-on course focused on making artist books from start to finish. You create 2-3 completed books while learning foundational hand-binding skills, working with found books, and experimenting with mixed media and structure. Projects include a Coptic stitch bound book, a transformed found book using cutting, collage, and erasure, and a final self-directed artist book. This is a making-intensive course with guided demonstrations, open studio time, and individual support. No prior experience required.
