About this event
In this hands-on bookbinding workshop, participants will incorporate a unique cover for the book they make as part of the celebration of Filipino American History month. Visual artist Regin Igloria has been leading Community Binding workshops throughout the Chicagoland area (and beyond) since 2010. The workshops introduce bookbinding skills and techniques to participants in a collaborative setting. Various binding techniques are covered, including variations on hand-sewn pamphlets and zines. Prompts are incorporated in the process to build content within the books, and instructional handouts and samples are shared, offering expanded resources to explore the medium beyond the work session.
