    ONLINE: Edge-Release Fold and Cut Structures with Paula Beardell Krieg

    Join us for three Tuesdays to explore the world of Edge-release structures.

    Edge-release structures are a world of simple, smart folding that go from flat to sculptural with a single opening motion, existing in a space somewhere between pop-ups and architecture.

    This introduction to edge-release begins with generic templates shared by Paul Jackson.

    We will then move into understanding the logic underpinning various kinds of cut and fold methods, with the intent to experiment with cut-outs, add-ons, hinging, and ways of creating unique variations of within the parameters of each structure.

    The optical confusion of edge-release folds is where their charms reside. Fronts, backs, and interior spaces intermingle. The possibilities for adding content and personalizing in unusual ways is literally limitless and can be dramatic and theatrical.

    These forms invite interaction which can be small enough to slide into an envelope or large enough to dance through.

    Paula Beardell Krieg (she/her) has been a paper enthusiast for as long as she can remember, taking particular delight in 3D paper transformations. For thirty years she collaborated regularly with classroom teachers to create engaging and dynamic projects for all age groups.
    Her adult workshops have taken place on zoom in and person both locally and in person at institutions ranging from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Center for Book Arts, the Museum of Mathematics, and small local venues.

    Krieg regular shows her work at the Bridges Mathematics and the Arts Exhibitions, has had her work published in numerous books including ones by Helen Hiebert and Diane Mauer, and, since 2009, has written about paper and book arts on her blog Bookzoompa which is located at:  https://bookzoompa.wordpress.com/

                          ONLINE: Triangle Bee Buttonhole Book with Anna Yevtukh

                          Join the fun to learn three techniques all in one tiny little book - we learned embroidery on leather, buttonhole stitching for binding books, and weaving as a decorative element for the spine.

                          The workshop will include discussions of different stitches, different kinds of threads, differences between stitching on leather and fabric.

                          The book measures under 5cm / 2”

                          There might be some homework between sessions. Registrants can work along with Anna, watch the live session, or just watch the videos later.

                          Anna Yevtukh is a member of the Society of Bookbinders, Designer Bookbinders and the local Guild of Designer Craftsmen who studied art and bookbinding in Ukraine and has been utilising these skills to build her handmade books since 1998. Anna is Ukrainian but has been permanently based in Worcester, UK since June 2006.

                          Basing her ethos on the fact that ‘’books should not merely be perceived as a means from which to read or write within,’ Anna’s artistic view to bookbinding allows her to create pieces of book art that are not only constructed with passion and flare to the highest quality but that are completely unique and personal.

                          Anna conducted various bookbinding, book arts and book conservation workshops and courses across the UK since 2007 and also teaches online for the last 4 years. She was a bookbinding tutor at Malvern School of Art from 2011 until 2021.

                          Location: ONLINE using the Thinkific platform and Zoom

                          Prior to registration, all interested participants must read this pdf which details the guidelines and expectations of the Guided Stream of the Home Study Programme. Registration for the workshop functions a formal agreement to these guidelines, whether or not they have been read.

                          Bookbinding 1 is the first workshop in CBBAG’s core curriculum and introduces the variety of tools, materials, sewings, and constructions fundamental to hand bookbinding.

                          Using the Thinkific online teaching platform, the workshop is a series of lecture-style videos, direct demonstration videos, and how-to pdfs housed into modules. The workshop will start with the making of a simple pamphlet and proceed to the binding of two hard cover books.

                          Using an online platform allows Mentors to have easy interaction with participants and allows participants to connect and support each other by encouraging discussion, questions and sharing of ideas. There will be a total of 4 Zoom meetings, during which the Mentor will lead a review of the group's project submissions, discuss challenges, and answer questions, emulating the in-person workshop more closely.

                          CBBAG will be providing a project materials kit to registrants as part of the workshop fee (postage will be extra).

                          The Guided Stream has requires participants to submit their completed projects by postal mail to their Mentor and this online environment allows for better feedback with live Zoom meetings to review submissions and for the whole group to learn together, mimicking the in-person workshop more closely. In total, participants will work through more than 15 individual projects, with 3 sets of submissions spanning 8 months with new modules opening up every 7-8 weeks. Participants are responsible for postage for all the submissions, to and return and is payable to the mentor directly.

                          The online, 24/7 delivery of the workshop is designed for an independent type of learner who needs a flexible schedule for learning and is unlikely to be able to attend an in-person workshop.

                          Successful completion of Bookbinding 1 in the Guided Stream qualifies participants to take in-person workshops that require Bookbinding 1 as a prerequisite.

                          Barbara Helander holds two degrees (B.Ed., M.Sc.) and her major in both was Clothing & Textiles. Her professional career spanned over 35 years where she worked not only in apparel manufacturing but also as a professor of textiles at Seneca College.  Over the years, Barbara has been nurturing a small keepsake business that involved the creation of one-of-a-kind books; but now that she has formally retired, she can finally take bookbinding and the book arts off the back burner!  Barb has worked her way through the core CBBAG courses and was pleased to earn her certificate in the spring of 2010.  Barbara is one of the core curriculum instructors for CBBAG - she teaches BB1 which is the introduction to the fundamentals of the craft. She is also a mentor for CBBAG Home Study.

                          Part 1 of the Repair and Restoration workshop will focus on 19th and 20th century cloth case bindings: how to identify them, what problems they develop, and how to repair and restore them. 

                           

                          Participants must bring their own materials to work on - in particular a cloth-bound book.

                           

                          Participants will be contacted prior to the workshop to ensure that the materials they are planning to bring to work on will be appropriate. 

                           

                          Repair and Restoration parts 1 & 2 are core courses required for the CBBAG Certificate.

                           

                          Rose Newlove is a graduate of the Fleming College conservation program and works as a book and paper conservator in Toronto. She has studied bookbinding at CBBAG with Don Taylor and Betsy Palmer Eldridge and at the American Academy of Bookbinding with Don Etherington.

                          Prior to registration, all interested participants must read this pdf which details the guidelines and expectations of the Guided Stream of the Home Study Programme. Registration for the workshop functions a formal agreement to these guidelines, whether or not they have been read.

                          Bookbinding 1 is the first workshop in CBBAG’s core curriculum and introduces the variety of tools, materials, sewings, and constructions fundamental to hand bookbinding.

                          Using the Thinkific online teaching platform, the workshop is a series of lecture-style videos, direct demonstration videos, and how-to pdfs housed into modules. The workshop will start with the making of a simple pamphlet and proceed to the binding of two hard cover books.

                          Using an online platform allows Mentors to have easy interaction with participants and allows participants to connect and support each other by encouraging discussion, questions and sharing of ideas. There will be a total of 4 Zoom meetings, during which the Mentor will lead a review of the group's project submissions, discuss challenges, and answer questions, emulating the in-person workshop more closely.

                          CBBAG will be providing a project materials kit to registrants as part of the workshop fee (postage will be extra).

                          The Guided Stream has requires participants to submit their completed projects by postal mail to their Mentor and this online environment allows for better feedback with live Zoom meetings to review submissions and for the whole group to learn together, mimicking the in-person workshop more closely. In total, participants will work through more than 15 individual projects, with 3 sets of submissions spanning 8 months with new modules opening up every 7-8 weeks. Participants are responsible for postage for all the submissions, to and return and is payable to the mentor directly.

                          The online, 24/7 delivery of the workshop is designed for an independent type of learner who needs a flexible schedule for learning and is unlikely to be able to attend an in-person workshop.

                          Successful completion of Bookbinding 1 in the Guided Stream qualifies participants to take in-person workshops that require Bookbinding 1 as a prerequisite.

                          Barbara Helander holds two degrees (B.Ed., M.Sc.) and her major in both was Clothing & Textiles. Her professional career spanned over 35 years where she worked not only in apparel manufacturing but also as a professor of textiles at Seneca College.  Over the years, Barbara has been nurturing a small keepsake business that involved the creation of one-of-a-kind books; but now that she has formally retired, she can finally take bookbinding and the book arts off the back burner!  Barb has worked her way through the core CBBAG courses and was pleased to earn her certificate in the spring of 2010.  Barbara is one of the core curriculum instructors for CBBAG - she teaches BB1 which is the introduction to the fundamentals of the craft. She is also a mentor for CBBAG Home Study.
