Works from On- Campus Handmade Book Workshop

Flag Books

At the start of this workshop, students spent time making and exploring different "book structures." The flag books are one style of book that the students learned.


The rest of the workshop students created their own book with content and a book design that best conveyed their idea. The results are diverse from trifold books memorializing a family member, to tarot cards in a handmade box, to an origami styled book about the isolation of the pandemic year.
