1:00 – 3:00 pm

This course aims to ignite creativity by exploring diverse techniques in paper engineering, altering, and three-dimensional bookmaking. The process provides an opportunity to transform memories and oral histories into meaningful visual representations. Participants can honor their communities and families, preserving stories and memories in tangible, artistic forms. This is the perfect opportunity to add mementos, photographs and other materials you have been saving. These unique books make wonderful gifts.

This program is made possible by the generous funding of the David Worby Foundation.
