Pocket Accordion Book Workshop

Event description

Pocket Accordion Books

We will be creating a beginners level Accordion book, setting the foundational skills for you to make something more elaborate if you enjoy the process. Like many forms of bookbinding you are really only limited by your imagination with what you would like this book to look like. The fold of this is quite simple so this will leave you with plenty of time to bring your pages to life! There is an option to have pockets in your design

Wren is a Walyalup Fremantle based artist, she studied Illustration and Graphic Design at Curtin University and has traveled a lot of the world gathering inspiration and joy from art and design most recently Japan and Mongolia. Wren is workshop facilitator and regional art project manager at DADAA and empowers many artists living with disabilities and complex mental health issues. Wren loves traveling to regional places and sharing the art she is passionate about with different communities, she is especially interested in reconciliation and working with First Nations people. She grew up in a small town and wants to enrich the places she visits with her creativity, kindness and passion in whatever little way she can.
