    • This workshop is part of a new 21 Acres Guest Artist Series. We are pleased to make our space available to a handful of local artists to teach their creative classes. 

    Create your own book in this workshop at 21 Acres!

    Choose your own cover papers and learn to bind an unlimited number of sheets into a notebook or sketchbook to gift to a friend or keep for yourself! 

    For this class, we’ll use a coptic stitch bind, which has an open spine and allows your sketchbook creation to lay flat. Expand your creativity and take home your unique creation in this 3-hour workshop.

    All materials are provided, though you are welcome to bring your own scrapbooking paper for your covers (if you don’t have any, your teacher has plenty). This class is recommended for students 12 and up.

    About your teacher: Rebecca Jordan (she/him) is a speculative author and artist telling stories about the natural world and exploring alien ones. RJ first got into printmaking through block printing and was immediately hooked. As a gardener and climate writer, she dug through leaves and flowers in her back yard to see what else she could print. She now uses botanical prints regularly in her mixed media pieces. RJ is a watercolor artist, illustrator, science writer, and experimenter. In her free time she draws bugs, pets cats, and makes weird stuff. See more and connect @beccaquibbles.
