Description:
The Pamphlet Stitch is a simple binding structure with a long history in the Western World. Today, pamphlet book structures are commonly found in zines, brochures, music, and other printed ephemera! In this workshop though, we'll be taking it up a notch and making hardcover books using the Pamphlet Stitch. Covers will be wrapped with fabric making for a luxurious blank notebook. Each attendee will walk away with a blank notebook made by hand!

There is a $25 registration fee to cover the cost of materials.

That same year, he began his MFA at the University of Arizona, Tucson. He has participated in group shows nationally since 2016 and has had solo shows across Nevada and in Arizona.
