Creative Book Making Series

Using ink, watercolors, graphite, and various types of paper, participants will use creative expression exercises to create a one-of-a-kind book. Spontaneous drawings and mark making often lead to images and stories we didn’t know were there. Come with a playful attitude. No experience needed. All are welcome. 

This is a 6 week long series at Hirschfeld Towers. 333 W Ellsworth Ave, Denver, CO 80223

Classes will take place on:

September 5, 12, 19, 26

October 3, 10
