Workshops run monthly from September – May, on a weekend, and run 3 hours. They are held at the Parkway Central branch of the Free Library of Philadelphia.
They are capped at 15 participants.
The workshops are open to the public, so no experience should be necessary.
We have 10 sets of basic supplies (rulers, bone folders, brushes, scissors, Exacto knives, bookbinding awls, needles, linen thread, cutting mats, glue sticks, etc.)
Instructors will be given a flat fee for teaching the workshop and materials purchased.
