Join bookmaker Debra Disman and embellish the 'Big Beach Book,' a people-sized book structure she developed with the community during the course of her recent Residency. Use paint pens, maps, repurposed book pages, collage materials and more, and add your special signature to this community driven project, inspired by the Camera, Palisades Park, the Santa Monica Beach and mountains, and of course, the blue Pacific! All are welcome.
I will be teaching a range of classes for the Marlborough Summer School this summer, including "Creating Unique Handmade Books", "Art and Writing", "Building A World", "Red Yellow Blue" (all about color!), "Fairy Tales" (fanciful bookmaking for young children), and "Make Your Own Books".
