About this Event

Tunnel & Carousel Books

Saturday and Sunday, November 22-23, 2025, 10:00am - 5:00pm each day with one hour lunch.

In this workshop we will explore options for three-dimensional books. Concentrating on accordion folded variations, we will construct tunnel, and carousel books. These playful structures are ideal for artist books and unique presentation books. Tunnel and Carousel structures have historically been used for children’s books or keepsakes.

Participants will learn how to use bookbinding tools, materials and their qualities.

Suitable for beginners and all experience levels.


MATERIALS FEE (paid to instructor at workshop): $30
