Flag Book Workshop (Register by 1/5)

Date/Time: Saturday, January 6, 10am-12pm
Cost: $18 Del Ray Artisans member / $28 Non-member; plus a $6 Supply Fee
Class size: 3-9 participants
(Register by noon on January 5)

For this workshop, we’ll take a dive into the world of artists’ books – works of art in book form – while we create a flag book. Flag books can look complicated, but you’ll be surprised how doable they are once you learn the steps, and how delightful they are to look at and experience. Your completed flag book will be ready to enhance with any type of content: text or images.

The $6.00 supply fee covers all the paper and other supplies to make the books. In addition, you will need to bring these supplies of your own to the workshop:

• Ruler (12″ or longer)
• Cutting board or piece of cardboard (12 x 12″ or larger)
• Scissors
• Pencil
• Metal spoon
• Colored markers or colored pencils (optional).

Note: We will be making blank flag books with 12 pages, or “flags” (double-sided). The main goal of the workshop is to learn how to construct a basic flag book, but we will have some time during the last part of the workshop to talk about ideas for content and strategies for embellishment. The instructor will have some basic art materials available to get you started, but you should plan to complete your flag book’s decoration and content at home.
