Explore the unique pleasures of “growing” your own books with paper you make by hand. Led by two dynamic instructors, this workshop series takes you through the inter-linked process of making paper and books. Start by learning the history of books and paper-making, followed by multiple opportunities to create paper from reclaimed fibers and to embellishing them with pressed and dried plants. These papers will then become the pages in the different book structures you will produce and take home.
