Artist Workshops are classes offered by the Creative Duck at the Campus Duck Store for our students, faculty, staff, and members of the community. During our workshops, experienced local and regional artists share their knowledge and secrets of the trade.

This workshop imparts how to incorporate elegant inlay hardcover bookbinding using maps, photographs, and other found objects. Whether you're a novice or advanced bookbinders, you'll learn the process of binding and casing a hardcover book that can be used for journaling or sketching. Have a favorite photograph, pressed leaf, fabric scrap or treasured memento inset within the cover of your one-of-a-kind journal and create a presentation worthy gift for a loved one or a personalized keepsake. The focus of the workshop will be building upon standard, hard cover bookbinding practices and creating depth, textural interest, and harmonizing mixed mediums. Mandolin is a doctoral candidate in English who combines her passion for books and fine art into specialized bookbinding. She has recently shown work at Art in the Pearl in Portland and does a variety of letterpress and bookbinding from her own studio in Silverton.
