Instructor Tanya Ehrsam invites young writers and artists to come together to craft their own stories and bring them to life through handmade books! Students will not only explore fiction writing but also learn the art of bookbinding to create their very own personal book to showcase their work. We’ll delve into character development, setting, establishing plot, and conflict, and find creative ways for resolution. Students will learn how to build their book with sewn-in signatures, create covers, and even make illustrations in their book for a creative finishing touch.

This 3-week course will be held from 10-11:30 am on Wednesdays, June 11-25, in the Idonea Hersee Classroom at 111 E. Broadway, Mount Pleasant, MI.

Recommended age: 8-12
