SOLD OUT Book Binding Workshop

Saturday 11 March, 10am & 2pm

A book is a container where an idea can grow and be nurtured.  

Join Meredith Paterson as she shows you how to make your own book. In these 2-hour workshops you will be introduced to pamphlet stitch, a simple and versatile binding method. It is a great place to start if you are interested in book making. You will leave with a soft-covered book where your own ideas can flourish.   

We are offering two sessions:
10am–12pm SOLD OUT
2–4pm SOLD OUT

Spaces are limited, please book now to avoid disappointment.  

At 12.30pm a public demonstration of book binding will be presented in the Reading Room outside the Deane and Hirschfeld Galleries on level 1. Take the time to see Ana Iti: I must shroud myself in a stinging nettle in these adjacent galleries which this workshop is being presented in association with.   


Meredith Paterson is a Wellington based letterpress printer and artist book maker. She’s one of the founding members of The Old Shebang.
