Artemis BonaDea Workshop – 11.1-2.14

Gustavus, Alaska book artist Artemis BonaDea led a pair of November workshops in Fairbanks. Organized by Tyson Rinio of UAF’s Rasmuson Library, the first focused on technical book repair and conservation skills. A number of Guild members attended, and will be exercising their new skills in their repair work at the Literacy Council and Rasmuson Library.

The second workshop featured a collaborative lotus-fold book, a secret Belgian binding book, and a nifty wrapper to protect those precious hand-made volumes.
