The Art of Book Folding

Presented by Bloomingdale Artists Association at Bloomingdale Park District Museum

The Art of Book Folding with Beth Dover. Join us to create folded book art. Together we'll begin a cut-and-fold pattern and learn some methods to adjust the pattern to make different variations of the same design.

Please bring these supplies: hardcover book (without color illustrations inside), 7.5-8 inches tall, minimum 470 pages (this can include unnumbered pages in the front and back); pencil, preferably mechanical; ruler with millimeter markings; scissors - best if they have a sharp point. Optional: rock, stapler, something heavy that can hold down book pages after marking/cutting; bone folder, credit card, pan scraper, vinyl scraper to make sharp creases.

$10 visitor fee. Registration is required; please contact Lois Shaffer at 630-924-1577. Consider becoming a member. The BAA welcomes new members, beginner to experienced artists, or anyone just curious about art. Membership dues for the calendar year of September through May are $30.
