Single Sheet Mini Book Bonanza with Amanda D’Amico (Online)

Schedule:  Aug 26, 2020: 6:00pm - 9:00pm (ET) 

3:00pm - 6:00pm (PT); 4:00pm - 7:00 pm (MT); 5:00pm - 8:00pm (CT) 

A simple, single sheet of paper contains infinite possibilities, and in this workshop we will learn a variety of structures created by simply folding and cutting. While some structures mimic and are informed by the traditional codex, others contain the potential to become sculptural objects. In this virtual workshop, we will begin with simple foundational structures and move into alterations and modifications. By the end of the workshop students will have a variety of basic Single Sheet Book models and the knowledge to experiment with new structures of their own.

Registration closes on August 16, 2020 to allow time for students to purchase their materials.
