The Book as Architecture
- A Workshop with Paul Johnson
Saturday May 8, 2010 (save the date)
9 am to 5 pm
The Athenaeum of Philadelphia
219 S. 6th Street

Paul Johnson creates amazing books from single sheets of paper that are architectural in structure with nothing added, nothing taken away, and no glue. In this workshop we will make a movable 3D book. All sections are constructed by using dovetail and mortise and tenon paper joints. Visit the Athenaeum's website starting in January to sign up.
