Taster mornings

Our Taster Morning is a great way for you to find out whether bookbinding is a craft that you will enjoy.

With instruction from an experienced tutor, you’ll be introduced to the basic skills required. You’ll start by making a very simple book from scratch, and progress from there. At the end you’ll take away a set of notebooks made with your own hands.

Taster Mornings are available on specified Saturdays depending on tutor availability and usually start at 9:30 am and finish around 1:30pm.

If you enjoy the day then why not book a Beginner’s Course?
