Book Arts

Last night was exciting, informative, and inspiration filled because of Carol Todaro's wonderful lecture and presentation on book arts. Small talk on the history of the art, then a great slide show of her multi-facetted work, then we all had to wash our hands before we examined the many samples of her Artist Books and also her student's work. The cherry on the cherry cake was when she showed us how to make a couple of fold type books. I think this is how a poetry workshop should be: hands on and tactile.

O.K. my students, tell me your individual experiences of that class. Comments are open. What did you learn? If anything?
