Design, print, and bind a perfect-bound book!
Class Description
Inspired by the vast field of artist's books, students will explore page relationships and sequencing of information to create an approximately 50 page book. Perfect binding is a versatile glue-based structure, no sewing required. Whether you're looking to print an existing project or just looking to explore a new structure, students will leave with their own bound book.
Students must be 18 or older. Experimentation encouraged! No experience required, open to all.
