Program Description

Event Details

Join us for an adventure with bookmaking in connection with the summer reading theme Adventure Begins at Your Library. Learn about the Rollins Museum of Art exhibition Critical Reading: Book Arts in Dialogue with the Collection. Then, create a series of maze books, each from a single sheet of paper. Experience how different cuts and folds impact the book’s layout, demonstrating unique variations in storytelling.

 

About the Instructor:

Stephanie Rodriguez is a book and textile artist who repurposes mass-produced and found objects to create works that evoke nostalgia for shared personal experiences. She received an Associate of Arts Degree at Valencia College before completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree at the University of Central Florida. In addition to exploring traditional book construction using repurposed pop-culture ephemera and personal keepsakes she also teaches a variety of fiber art related classes at Orlando Public Library. These classes include instruction on sewing, crochet, and hand embroidery.
