WORKSHOPS
How to Make a Photograph Album BA05SP08w
Instructor: Barbara Mauriello
Saturday and Sunday, March 15 & 16, 10:00-4:00
There are three basic approaches to album making – and hundreds of variations–defined
by the page format: an extended accordion, a stack of single sheets, or a set
of folded sections. By keeping our models small, we will make prototypes of as
many structures as time allows, with each participant selecting their favorites
from among the possibilities presented. There will be much discussion on both
the advantages and limitations of a given style. Variables as diverse as the
number of photos to be bound, the size of a sheet of paper, and the availability
of bookbinding equipment in the home studio will lead students towards specific
models. The goal is not to produce a single, large album, but rather to understand
and to play with the principles of album making. Please bring some (small!) photos
with you on Saturday. Barbara Mauriello is a book artist who has a
bookbinding studio in Hoboken, NJ. Barbara is the author of Making Memory Boxes.
She is also a visiting instructor at the International Center of Photography,
the Newark Museum, the Paper and Book Intensive and the Penland School of Crafts.

Box of Fireworks BA08SP08w
Instructor: Paul Johnson
Thursday, July 17, 9:30-12:30
No one can create more surprises from a few pieces of paper than
Paul Johnson. This class starts with participants making a paper
origami box. Then you’ll construct an extending pop-up
book that “grows” out of the box. As you lift the
book, pages pop out from the sides like a pyrotechnic display!
It’s great fun to make and, amazingly, required only paper,
scissors and glue. A workshop of terrific fun. Enrollment limited
to 10 students. Cost: $65; members: $59
Making Moveable Editions: Single Sheet Books BA09SP08w
Instructor: Paul Johnson
Friday, July 18, 10:00-4:00
The workshop begins with cutting out and assembling from a flat
sheet one of Paul Johnson’s 90-degree pop up editioned
books; we will then explore techniques and produce several models
easily constructed from a photocopied base design. Finally, participants
design a pop-up book on a single sheet of paper suitable for
reproduction as an edition. This way, you can keep your original
pop-up and give copies to friends as well! Enrollment limited
to 10 students. Cost: $120; members: $108
Children’s Favorites:
Books Kids Love to Make BA06SP08w

With little more than scissors and glue, you and your students
can make books to read, to view like a picture, to hold and explore
like a sculpture, or to rearrange in a variety of 3D shapes.
Expect to take away dozens of books models---integrating verbal
and visual images and paper technology---that make learning fun
for children. (Note: this workshop
is especially geared for teachers). Enrollment

The Magic of Moveable Books: Kids as Pop-up Engineers BA07SP08w

Sunday, July 20, 10:00-4:00
Making moveable books with your students is the perfect way to
unlock their verbal and visual ideas---and meet your classroom
goals. Participants construct a range of moveable books and paper
models, progressively combining them to end up with a book that
might have pull-outs, lift-the-flap pages, pop-up units, removable
parts and more! (Note: this workshop is especially geared
for teachers). Enrollment limited to 15 students. Cost:
$120; members: $108
