The Studio on a Sunday (on a Monday)

Spring Logo-01

The last few days I’ve been working on swag for this year’s Toronto Etsy Street Team’s Midsummer Market!!  If you’re one of the first 50 people through the door, you’ll get an awesome swag bag filled with goodies from local makers!

This year is a bit different, there’ll be an outside space AND an inside space, at the gorgeous Campbell House.  I’ll be inside, keeping my paper goods safe from the elements, but be sure to stop by and check it all out!

Bonus Tip: The show is right by Osgoode Subway station, so convenient!!

A Bookbinding Workshop at a Print Museum

photo-31

Just a couple of days ago I had the pleasure of teaching a workshop alongside these fine fellows at Mackenzie House Museum here in Toronto.  It was a combination bookbinding & printmaking class, geared at learning traditional techniques and using analogue tools and equipment.  It was great fun, everyone left with a unique journal they handbound and then printed themselves!

The entire month of April is Print Month over at Mackenzie House!  There are more printmaking events happening at the museum, see their website for details.

To see a list of Sprouts Press’ upcoming bookbinding workshops go here.
