Book Arts Lounge: Mad About Matchbooks!
July 01, 2009

BOOK ARTS LOUNGE
"Mad About Matchbooks"
Friday, July 10, 6 to 9pm

A fun, creative, accessible book arts lounge. Come prepared with your creativity! This night's lounge is like a casino buffet! After learning the simple binding structure and setting type and printing on a Vandercook press, everyone can create their own series of Matchbooks and bind one with special prepared content. In conjunction with the new exhibit opening July 8th, Racism: An American Family Value we'll see how common place objects, icons and materials can be reconfigured.

Led by 2008-09 Stein Scholars Taelor Reid and Liz Zanis!

Book Arts Lounge is a monthly art-making extravaganza and open studio event at the Center for Book Arts. Each month, we focus on a different book arts theme, covering printing, bookbinding, and paper treatments, among other exciting topics. This low cost, high energy event takes place on the second Friday of every month, and is open to arts enthusiasts of all skill levels. Snacks provided. $10 suggested donation.

No registration required, but you can let your friends know about the event on Facebook.
