You can choose between these 3 Workshops:
ROTUNDA from Venice Manuscripts  
The first workshop will be dedicated to exploring manuscripts from the Museo Correr library in Venice. We will look at some examples from their manuscripts and focus on the Rotunda – this beautiful “Italian Gothic”. In this workshop we will study the lowercase letters and try to complete one side of a small folio - by studying the dimensions and proportions of the manuscript. I will also bring quills and some scraps of parchment so you will experience a little piece of history... :)

BOOKBINDING workshop
with Igor Kužnik 
With Igor, a professional bookmaker, you will learn about the materials needed to make a hand-sewn book. Then you will delve into the making of a book block, which we will sew—just as bookbinders did centuries ago—on a real bookbinding stand. While the book will dry, we will focus on designing the leather covers and creating the spine in the old-church binding.
Igor will also bring with him a gold-pressing machine and show you how it works... In the end you will have your very own hand-sewn book in your hands!

SCHEDULE:
Wednesday, 29. October: 1​6​.00 - 19.00
Thursday, 30. October: ​10​.00 - 17.00
