Sunday, September 28th

12 PM - 6 PM

There are several instances where rebinding a paperback into hardcovers is advantageous. Before you go about fixing something of value, join us for a workshop to learn the process before tackling your own!

In this workshop, we’ll go over the process of re-casing paperback texts with options for utilizing the original cover. This will add many years of life onto the works you wish to preserve.
