Bookbinding and Conservation Workshop Wed 13 May
Wednesday 13 May, 10am - 4pm, £80
Learn and perfect traditional methods of bookbinding, repair and conservation under the guidance of The Keep’s conservator Melissa Williams. In these sessions, you can choose what you’d like to work on, from repairing your own books to creating something new, and you can try anything from a simple case-binding to more sophisticated stitching designs and finishes, such as gold-leaf tooling. These sessions are suitable for beginners or those with more advanced skills.
A toolkit (£25) can be purchased on the day; depending on your project, there may be additional costs for materials.
Tea and coffee will be provided, but please bring your own lunch.
