“Build a Book!” Bookbinding workshop

This Bookbinding workshop offers you the chance to make a traditionally hand bound notebook. Choose one of 3 different hard backed book structures.

This workshop is delivered at a gently enjoyable pace and participant numbers are restricted to the very low number of 4 to ensure that you have plenty of space to work and support and attention from me.

Some crafting experience is helpful but not essential.
Many bookbinding workshop providers prepare materials in advance so that students essentially work from kits.
I believe this reduces the opportunity to learn and practice essential knowledge and manual skills to be able to make more books independently at home. Therefore I teach you how to make your books from scratch from the flat materials provided.
Please feel welcome to get in touch with any questions regarding the suitability of this workshop for you and to discuss particular support needs.

Materials for the project are provided. The ticket price does not include Eventbrite fees and taxes. Tickets are non-refundable and not transferrable.

The workshop is held in the Barefoot Bindery Studio upstairs at Fisherton Mill. Your tutor Tamsin is an artist, bookbinder and experienced bookbinding and printmaking workshop facilitator. Working from her Salisbury studio she makes limited editions of journals and sketchbooks and offers a useful book repair service.
Fisherton Mill Cafe offers workshop participants a generous 20% discount on lunches, please ask Tamsin for a voucher.
