In this class we will create a flag book with an enclosure band. A flag book is a variation of an accordion fold with extra “pages” sticking out. This is a great artist book to make at home, minimal effort, maximum effect. I consider this book the gateway structure to book arts, it is the first structure many people make before diving into more complicated artist books.

These books are great for a short poem, a mosaic of a landscape, or a collage of photographs. Students should come with an idea or two for what they want their book to be about so we can dive right into work. Materials and tools for binding are provided. Students will spent class folding the spine of the book, working on the tabs or “pages”, creating covers, and a band to hold it all together.

Each student will leave with a one of a kind artist book.

Max class size 6.
