About this Workshop:
Do you ever wonder what to do with prints that just don’t quite make the cut? Join us for a fun evening of repurposing prints into cute little accordion books! This book form is a great and easy way to reuse paper scraps and can be made at nearly any size. During this workshop, we’ll construct one of these little joys while browsing samples from the instructor’s collection, exploring media that best apply to the form, and showing students how they can make their mis(screen)printed accordion books extra-unique! Don’t have any misprints to bring to the workshop? Never fear, Pyramid will have a stash of various misprints on hand for students to pick from!
Level: All levels welcome – no experience necessary.
Registration closes June 10, 2022 and all materials are provided.
