Print to Book at Megalo

Caren Florance is teaching this workshop at Megalo from 10am to 5pm on September 13, 2008.

Print to Book is a short workshop for printmakers exploring various methods of converting prints to book structures. It's a wonderful way to transform proofs and misprints, or to develop a distinct body of work within a print practice. Participants are encouraged to bring their own prints, or can work with blank paper (provided) to create maquettes for later reference.
