About this event
Create your own 90+ page sketchbook with this beginner friendly workshop! You will learn every step of the bookmaking process, from the folding of paper to attaching covers. Best of all? At the end of this three hour workshop, you’ll have your very own usable sketchbook durable enough to toss in a backpack and travel with you through the city that lies perfectly flat and allows you to make the most of the page.
Please note: Masking is now encouraged, but optional in the studio space. Individuals who feel uncomfortable using the space with others unmasked, whether for health or any other reason, are welcome to request mask-wearing while using the studio space.
About the instructor
Icarus Key is a 2024 UArts graduate of the MFA in Printmaking and Bookbinding program and a 2020 UAH graduate with a BFA focused in printmaking and graphic design. He uses the medium of the book and the multiplicity of the print to create affordable art that tells stories of queerness and marginalization and seeks to spread the joys of bookmaking and storytelling to everyone he meets.
