About the Workshop:
Does glue stress you out? Does thread tangle at your touch?
Then these no-glue/no-thread structures are for you! This exploration of non-adhesive assembly and binding features four structures: a simple pop-up card, a multi-spread pop-up book (with case), a blank accordion book with slipcase, and a formal codex bound and cased with tabs alone. All four of these structures will be assembled and bound using a kit of pre-cut pieces and a set of simple hand tools. This workshop is great for all levels; the omission of glue reduces stress for beginners, while the technical features surrounding non-adhesive joins appeal especially to more experienced book artists.
Required Materials:
- Bone folder
- Microspatula

All other materials will be provided by the Center for Book Arts at no additional cost.
