The
purpose of the School for Formal Bookbinding is to provide
high quality
instruction in hand bookbinding. Emphasis is placed on the
understanding that a successful hand-bound book is the result of interrelated
decisions about structure, technique and material at every stage of the
binding process. This year the school will offer the progressive series of one week classes (Bookbinding 1 through 6); a number of weekend workshops; a one week class of enclosures, including portfolios, slipcases, and clamshell boxes; a one week workshop on edition binding and a one week workshop on design binding. In the case of classes scheduled in sequential weeks students who sign up for both classes can do so at a reduced tuition and housing rate. Anyone with specific interests or ideas for classes not listed is encouraged to contact us. |
