Create your own artist book in this class from bookbinding expert Lisa Hersey! You will create a flag book with an enclosure band.

You are encouraged to brainstorm an idea or two for what you want your book to be about before class so we can dive right into work! Materials and tools for binding are provided. Each participant will leave with a one of a kind artist book! Learn more about Lisa on her website. This program is supported in part by a grant from the Haverhill Cultural Council, a local agency, which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. https://haverhillpl.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/bookbinding/
