We’ll go over the basics of bookbinding, and explore variations on the pamphlet stitch and an instant book.(It’s free!)

  • Where: Greenpoint Library, 107 Norman Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11222

P.S. Can’t make it to the workshop? You can always purchase a calendar or a weekly mini planner from my shop!

A Room of My Own (3 Days Per Week)

I’ve just embarked on a studio adventure. I’m sharing a space in Greenpoint with a writer. She uses the space four days a week, and the other three are all mine. We have the space through December for certain. After that we can decide what to do next.

The building used to be a maritime rope factory and diamond factory. This morning I got up early for my first day in the studio. I love that I can see the Williamsburg Bridge from the window, Manhattan across the water, and the East River Ferry zooming by outside the window! I’m excited to spend time in the space focusing on having fun, being playful, and making new artwork. Stay tuned!
