Discover the joy of making your own hand-bound book in this beginner-friendly workshop led by local woodworker Hugo Nakashima-Brown.

Using simple tools and techniques, learn how to sew together pages and attach sturdy wooden covers using the classic “Coptic” binding style—famous for its beautiful exposed stitch and a spine that lets books open completely flat (perfect for sketching, writing, or creative journaling). You'll leave with a unique journal created by you and a new appreciation for one of the world’s oldest bookmaking traditions!

Timely arrival is expected, as this is a structured class--not a drop-in.
