Learn how to add fore-edge artwork to the edges of the pages of your own book.

Love the gorgeous designs on the edges of book pages that you are seeing all over your social media feeds and IRL at the library? It's called "fore-edging", a traditional way to embellish a book that started in Europe in the 10th century but has re-gained popularity in the book world in recent years. Learn how to do this to your own books! Bring your own HARDCOVER book, or we'll provide a gently used one for you to beautify. All other materials will be supplied. 

AGE GROUP: | Teen (12-18) |
