Red Bird Chapbooks: Books to Zines – Histories, Hands, and the Pamphlet Stitch

This workshop introduces participants to the history of book arts and zines as an artform and as tools for storytelling, resistance, and community-building. Participants will learn the 3-hole pamphlet stitch and leave with a hand-bound publication of their own. There is no cost to participate in this workshop; however as space is limited, if you sign up we do expect you to attend, or let us know with at least 72 hour notice that you cannot be in attendance.
