ART/LIT Teen Art Club: Box Stitch Bookbinding
Advertisement
Transform a forgotten book into a one-of-a-kind piece of art with guidance from artist and educator Nicole Uzzell.
Teens (ages 12-17) are invited to dismantle an upcycled book and rebuild it to tell a unique story in this hands-on creative workshop. Traditional Japanese box stitch bookbinding techniques will be taught and collaging materials will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring their own sentimental treasures such as maps, letters, or photos to add.
Please note: Bookbinding needles and utility knives will be used during this workshop. Safety instructions and supervision will be provided, but please consider the use of these tools when registering your student.
