3D Postcard Workshop

How do you build an entire paper world that fits into one postcard? Participants will learn to make fold-out books with cut-out illustrations, and design their own 3D postcards.

Illustration Workshop

Illustrating a book is not a simple task, but it is exciting. How does text relate to images? How do we transfer images from our head onto paper and how do we convey the author’s ideas? Drawing on works by some of the best-known illustrators, teachers will introduce participants to the basics of book design and help them make their own illustrations.
