Description<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the Hardcover Bookbinding Workshop, we\u2019ll learn the fundamental principles of bookbinding and build a notebook from scratch, exploring the different stages of the process, from preparing the block to constructing and assembling the cover.

Each participant will prepare a book block consisting of white sheets of paper, sew it together, and construct a rigid cover made of cardboard and a spine, then finish the cover and secure the different elements together.

You will practice folding, sewing, and assembly techniques, learning how to prepare the materials and create a durable, sturdy, and functional bookbinding, with attention to structure, alignment, and finishing touches.

No prior knowledge of bookbinding is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
