Holiday Bound at Minsky's Circa 1990
40th Anniversary Alumni Instructor Series @ the Center for Book Arts
Full Tilt instructor Susan Mills apprenticed with CBA founder Richard Minsky. One of her early projects was binding an edition of 50 small leather books as holiday gifts for Minsky's clients. The books involved ploughing, paring, rounding, back-cornering, headcapping, tooling and variegated metal edge gilding over Armenian bole. WHEW! In the true spirit of continuing education, Susan will teach the workshop from her original student notes.
Saturday and Sunday, December 6th & 7th, 10:00am - 4:00 pm
