Wowwee, come and see us and if the mood takes you contribute to…
‘Missing Letters’ Mono Printing Project Sunday 21 April, 2pm, Free Meeting Room ‘Celebrating the launch of her new artist’s book Lucy May Schofield invites visitors to BABE to create a simple one or two word contribution using the name of a person, place, object or feeling that they miss. Inspired by the ‘triangular letters’ Russian soldiers wrote home during WWII these secret longings will form a collection of anonymous nostalgia notes by the close of the book fair.’
Due to a few new and exciting commissions of late, I have rekindled my love of making Clamshell boxes, though I'd hardly lost it. There is something uniquely satisfying in all the measuring, building, cutting, turning and tucking in the making of a cloth covered clamshell box. There will be the opportunity to make 2 boxes over a weekend workshop on 23rd & 24th March, the first to a standard size and the second, a bespoke box made to your own specifications to house a beloved book or print edition. Feel the love of box making! For details and bookings visit hot bed press.
