The Pullen Arts Center is almost through its 3-year renovation and I have two book arts classes coming up in July and August. There are two more classes coming up in the Fall when Pullen fully opens. The Summer classes are:
Tunnel & Star Books: # PUARBOOKTBSB-001 : Explore how a basic accordion book can become a small world or a revolving calliope as two fun and easy structures become complex and intricate. Paper cutting, collage, painted or drawn imagery, and your own story will be part of this class. Optional, bring your own collage or photographs, to add to your books. A $30 studio fee is due to the instructor at the first class.
Cost: Raleigh resident: $76 or non
resident : $91. 4 Mondays, July 12- Aug 2; 6-9pm.
A Book in a Box: #PUARBOOKBOX-001: We’ll make a hard cover book that slips into it’s own drop-top box case. This class covers cutting and covering bookboard, binding using the french-link/kettle stitch, and adhering the text block firmly into the book board case. We’ll also learn to make a book-like box that’s easy and beautiful. All levels. Supply fee of $40 is due to instructor at the first class.
Cost: Raleigh
resident . $76 or non
resident . $91. 4 Mondays, Aug. 9-30; 1pm-4pm.
You’ll love the new Pullen Arts Center! Classes are a bit smaller and we’ll have everything you need.
To register, you’ll need to call Pullen Arts Center (919 996-6126) for online instructions or how to register by phone or in person. Covid regulations will follow NC specifications. Finally, the Book Studio has a new heavy-duty paper cutter which cuts book board, so that will be a great resource for our area too!
