Join us for an immersive and hands-on creative workshop exploring the art of papermaking and bookbinding, hosted in the heart of Melville at AA Gallerie.

In this special session, we delve into the ancient practice of papermaking — using plant-based fibres to craft sheets imbued with texture, memory, and meaning. Participants will learn the full process of transforming natural materials into handmade paper, followed by a guided exploration into traditional bookbinding techniques.

Whether you're a visual artist, writer, designer, or simply curious about tactile crafts, this workshop invites you to slow down, reconnect with material processes, and leave with your own bound creation.

Expect a space filled with curiosity, creative exchange, and a quiet kind of joy — all set against the backdrop of AA Gallerie’s evolving program of community-based artistic practices.
