Bookbinding Workshops at GSA

Last week we were invited to run a couple of bookbinding workshops at the Glasgow School of Art Portfolio Preparation Course.

Robin and I spent the day in the inspiring spaces of the old McLellan Galleries teaching two groups of future artists and designers a little about bookbinding.

Portfolio Preparation Classes are a great way to build up a cohesive body of work for prospective art school applicants to take to interviews.

At GSA they run Summer classes as well as an evening course with a brilliant and varied output to encourage their students to work independently to develop their own creative processes.  Similar courses can also be found in a number of other colleges.

Although not used to teaching quite so many people at once(!) the classes went really well and everyone went home with a couple of very interesting sketchbooks!

If you are part of a class, group or organisation who might enjoy a bookbinding workshop we can tailor one to suit your needs.  Contact us to see what we can do for you!
