Girls in rising 4th–7th grade will explore the creative and hands-on art of bookbinding while learning how books are constructed from cover to spine. Campers will experiment with a variety of binding techniques, such as saddle stitch, Japanese stab binding, and simple sewn spines. Girls will get to work with various materials, including paper, fabric, thread, and decorative elements. Along the way, they’ll design and create their own journals, sketchbooks, and mini books to take home. This camp blends creativity, craftsmanship, and patience, making it a great fit for girls who love art, storytelling, and working with their hands.Additional Information
