Coptic Bookbinding Workshop - Ages 14+
Join Molly from Made with Magick for an engaging three-hour workshop where you'll learn the art of Coptic bookbinding, a centuries-old technique known for its beautiful exposed stitching and flexibility. In this hands-on class, participants will be guided through the process of creating their own hand-bound book from start to finish. You'll learn to prepare the materials, fold and cut the paper, and stitch the binding using traditional Coptic methods. By the end of the session, you'll have a unique, handmade book perfect for journaling, sketching, or as a special gift. All materials are provided, and no prior experience is necessary. Come unleash your creativity and discover the joy of bookbinding in a fun and supportive environment!
