About

Bookbinding is the traditional art of making books by hand. In this workshop you will be given an introduction to the basics of bookbinding and leave with your own Moleskine-style hardback book.

We will guide you through the process of binding a set of A6 pages together and making the hardback case. You’ll also get the opportunity to customise your handmade cover using a variety of materials and vinyl transfers. You can even bring in your own materials such as a piece of (thickish) nice or recycled paper for the cover or even paper for the pages on the inside.
