Instructor: Susan M. Callan has been a (mostly self-taught) Book Arts devotee since the early 1990’s. In the mid 2000’s, she was invited to join a 12-artist team (The Creativity Center) each teaching their own art. In that Center’s 5-year run, she discovered the genuine joy of sharing her BA knowledge and skills with enthusiastic students. She’s been teaching (and, of course, still learning) Book Arts classes ever since. She is an instructor at several Bainbridge Island organizations, and this coming June, she will again be teaching at FOBA (Focus on Book Arts) national conference in Forrest Grove, OR.
Podcast with Susan talking about the skill and craft of creating artist’s books and her favorite places to see artist’s book collections. She mentions BARN being in the think tank stage and it was opened in June 2017. This is a great place to take a workshop!
