“We Write the Book”: Making “Folded Fan” Books at the Northridge Branch Library!

I am thrilled to serve again as a 2025-26 “NEAR” Artist in Residence at the Northridge Branch Library!

This Neighborhood Engagement Artist Residency (NEAR) is supported by the wonderful City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.

On September 17th, 2025,  participants of a diverse ages and backgrounds gathered to learn how to create the fun and fanciful “FOLDED FAN”  book with pages that open like a codex, and/or fan out to create a sculptural book that can stand on its own! Folks got really creative.
