Altered Books In-Person
Have you ever wanted to take a pair of scissors to a book? Here’s your chance to destroy a perfectly good book while creating a new work of art! Laura Jackett will show you how to start with a normal hard cover book that you'll cut, glue, rip and otherwise desecrate with your artmaking.
Participants will learn the basics of pop up and kaleidoscope books for use within their pages. These books may look strange and funny, but they can pack a powerful message.
OPTIONAL: Students may bring drawings, magazine images or computer prints up to 4” x 8”. Any found materials such as fabric, dried flowers, feathers, ribbons, etc. can be brought for embellishments.
For ages 13-18
Registration is required and limited!
