Can a book be more than pages full of words?
With imagination and some triangle know how, you can create an “A-Mazing Triangle” book. After all, isn’t any good picture or book worth a thousand words?
Attendees of the “A-Mazing Triangle Workshop” will spend the morning creating triangular books. They’ll also learn different ways to turn a single piece of paper into triangular pages. Students will get to explore various maze patterns that result in remarkable sculpture books. Bookbinding experience is not necessary.
