Event Details

Come learn the art of book folding from Beth Dounane-Oldrich, Delmar resident and the author of "Book Folding for Beginners and Beyond." Book folding is the art of folding pages in books to create book sculptures. This is an eco-friendly craft that transforms used books into art. This is the modern-day twist on origami.

All materials will be provided but if you have a hardcover book that you'd like to make into a piece of art, feel free to bring it along!

Beth is a middle school teacher and a lifetime crafter. During the pandemic, she came across the art of book folding. After falling in love with this craft, she opened up the Etsy store, Patternybooks. Recently, she published the book, "Book Folding for Beginners and Beyond." This book contains detailed tutorials, helpful hints, and 12 unique patterns.
