Book Making Workshop - St Ives Arts Club

Book Making Workshop - St Ives Arts Club

---

A fun and creative workshop - a chance to learn something new and useful - at St Ives Arts Club.

Learn to make hand-made books with Nina Fenner.

In a historic setting right in the heart of beautiful St Ives and overlooking the harbour.

This day will focus on designing and making your own unique and lovingly hand crafted Hardback Sketchbook.

"All the books I make are unique, and I encourage my workshop participants to do the same, so that all the books made on the same day with the same structure will turn out differently."

All materials are provided, along with tools to borrow or buy.

Saturday 2nd April 2016.
10.00 am - 4.00 pm.

Cost: £30.00
