September is back-to-school time; everyone seems to be learning something new! If you’re one of those folks excited by the idea of learning a different technique or fresh-n-fancy skill, well…I’ve got just the thing for you!
hard at work, making books at Press...
There are a handful of spaces left in both of the workshops I’ll be teaching over at Press: Works on Paper in San Francisco! (see below for details) Spend three hours folding paper, sewing signatures, and making books — is there a better way to spend an after-work evening? And I haven’t yet had a chance to mention that there are snacks and beer included in the cost of class, as well as all the materials you’ll need to make two complete books…
still life, with bookbinding tools...
This will be the last series of classes that I teach, before heading off to New York for the Art Book Fair — it’s now or never! (Or at least, ’til October…)

Everyday should be a Red Letter Day... 
Jennie…looks like loads of FUN ! Unfortunately, the commute from Virginia would be a bit too much : Toodles….
I’m sure your students had a wonderful experience tonight. Wish I were there and could have joined in. Thanks for my cadeaux!
I’d have been there if I had a private jet. 😦 Color me envious. Wish we had things going on here like that. Wish I could host something, but reality rules.
Good show!
Oh, if anyone can join us in Jennie’s class, you MUST! :-} Jennie is an excellent, highly-skilled, incredibly creative, and FUN teacher! And Press is a wonderful little spot tucked into the Noe Valley/Mission cross-section neighborhoods – very close to yummy restaurants and Muni J-train and several bus lines.
