Come spend three immersive days learning how to make a casebound book that fits in a clamshell box!

Taught by veteran bookbinder Bonnie Thompson Norman, this multi-day format will provide you with the time needed to learn to sew and glue a case bound book—the gold standard of bookbinding.

At PiP, we embrace the power of doing hard things, together. The best part of treating yourself to a letterpress class isn’t the print you’ll make, but the community you’ll build while making it.
