Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this bookbinding class:

In this introductory class we will explore form, shape, and motion. Starting with simple modular pop-out structures, leading up to a multi signature hard covered book, you will receive a solid foundation of skills that you can apply to more complex binding structures.


Although this class focuses on the form of the book rather than the content within, we devote a good amount of class time discussing the creative process and the importance of having a sketchbook on you for daily sketching practice.


Materials Fee covers materials and consumables aquired and prepared for class projects.

Refund Policy

When class/workshop enrollment is below the minimum three days prior to the first day of class, the class may be cancelled. If there is a cancellation, we will contact registered students at least 2 days before the start of the class/workshop by email or by phone.

We will offer students the option to transfer into another class or receive a full refund for the amount paid.

Classes are not refunded due to failure to attend class, planned absences, minor illnesses, or vacations.

If you drop a class:

  • If you drop a class at least 8 business days before it starts, you will receive a 100% refund minus a $20 administrative fee.
  • If you drop a class between 7 to 2 business days before it starts, there are no refunds. At this point students may receive a class credit if the school is able to replace your seat with another student before the start of class. If this is not possible, crediting will not be offered.
  • If you drop a class on or after the class start date, no refunds or credits are possible.

Transfers:

  • If you transfer to from one class to another class of equal value or more, there is no administrative fee.
  • Otherwise an admin fee will be charged for transfers.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.
