*Simple Books: Folded and Sewn

This workshop applies to authors, designers, students, and others who wish to present their work in the book format. Starting with a lesson on how to fold a sheet of paper, we will proceed to the construction of a set of beautiful small books encased in handmade paper covers. Several pamphlet bindings, an accordion-fold book, and one more elaborate binding will complete the collection, as some basic principles of bookbinding are explained and demonstrated.

**Barbara Mauriello is on the faculty of the International Center for Photography and the Center for Book Arts in New York . She has conducted workshops at the Cooper-Hewitt National Museum , the Penland School of Crafts, and the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. Her book, Making Memory Boxes is published by Rockport Publishers.
