Accordion Bookmaking Workshop

Join us for the Accordion Bookmaking Workshop on Saturday, June 1st, 2024 at Pine Meadow Ranch Center for Arts & Agriculture!

This workshop uses bookmaking and Turkish Map folding (back to back) techniques to aid participants in reflecting on the role of the river in the community and pondering the experience of fish during migration.

Participants in this workshop will replicate the presence of the river using writing, drawing, and other techniques. They will learn how to translate abstract concepts into tangible materials that convey these ideas, stories, and emotions.

These books become an intimate conversation between the viewer and the creator. As the pages of the book unfold, the content comes to life.

All skill levels welcome!

All materials will be supplied.
