SUMMARY:Workshop: Coptic Bookbinding
DESCRIPTION:Coptic Books lay flat and their attractive visible spine stitching invites endless creativity. Coptic binding was employed by early Coptic Christians in Egypt and used from as early as the 2nd century AD to the 11th century. The term is also used to describe modern bindings sewn in the same style. Coptic bindings are characterised by sections of paper sewn through their folds\, and attached to each other with chain stitch linkings across the spine. \nRead the full Course Description HERE \nIf you can’t make this date\, send me a message to arrange a Bespoke Bookbinding Workshop for Two HERE. \nYou’ll take away your unique handbound books\, new skills\, and the satisfaction and well-being of a day spent creatively. \nCreative Courses is a new multi-use creative space where you’ll meet new people\, learn new skills\, and be playful and creative in a relaxed\, friendly environment. Tea and coffee\, quality teaching\, and materials are provided… you just turn up and enjoy your day. There is plenty of parking and the venue is 15 minutes walk from Faversham train station. The Creative Courses Workshop is on the first floor of Unit 1C. There is no lift.

SUMMARY:Wealden Literary Festival
DESCRIPTION:Bindfulness Handmade Books will be running drop-in workshops throughout the Wealden Literary Festival weekend. Come and find me in the Barn at Boldshaves! \nThe Wealden Literary Festival began in 2015 with a simple idea: to provide a space where people could slow down\, come together\, and connect with nature…With more than 100 acres to explore\, Boldshaves offers space for children to roam freely and everyone to find their own moments of inspiration. Take part in talks\, hands-on workshops\, and outdoor activities. \nBindfulness has been at the Wealden Literary Festival every year since my time as Artist in Residence in 2019. \nA free shuttle bus will operate between Ashford Station (outside the domestic terminal) and the Festival site.
