Let’s create new journals from old books! Using a hard-covered book, you will learn how to successfully deconstruct it by removing the text block. You will then reinforce the spine and create signatures (groups of papers to form the pages) using a variety of papers. Once that’s finished, decide how you want to organize your pages, and we will talk about the various options. Using some book binding tools, I will show you how to stitch in the signatures and create the inside covers. Bring a hard-cover book, around 5" x 8" with a spine no wider than 1.5". Choose a book whose cover you like, as we will be leaving them as they are. A $20 materials fee is payable to the instructor at the first class.

- Visual Journaling: Art for Well Being

Journaling has many established benefits, from stress reduction to self-discovery and understanding. But oftentimes words are inadequate to express the nuances of what we are experiencing, processing, or trying to understand more deeply. Using guided imagery as a springboard, we will work with color and image to expand the practice of journaling into more dimensional forms. Journalers and artists, as well as those with no previous experience, are welcome with an openness to inner exploration and outward expression. Basic sketchbook-type journals and colored markers included in tuition. Students may bring other materials if desired.
