Support Book & Paper Arts

Our Book and Paper Arts Studio is a haven for students eager to learn the process of old and new bookbinding techniques, papermaking, printmaking, calligraphy, and marbling. With space to work independently or as a group, the window-filled studio welcomes students by allowing them to learn and engage in their preferred craft.

With your support, the Folk School can ensure that our book and paper arts classes thrive and continues to provide opportunities for the hundreds of students who pass through our program each year.

Donations of any amount are greatly appreciated; donations of $1,000 or more can be restricted to studio facilities and equipment needs, which are determined annually by staff.
