Apolline offers a bookbinding workshop in Paris at her studio in the 19th arrondissement. During this activity, you can learn the basics of bookbinding by following her instructions and advice.

What is bookbinding? It's a technique that simply consists of binding several sheets of a book together, potentially folded into a notebook.

Japanese binding and linocut printing workshop (4h - minimum age 8) :

  • Creation of an A5 notebook: original Japanese binding. The cover in colored or patterned paper will then be decorated with a linocut print of your own making.
  • Assemble the leaves of your notebook using a Japanese binding you've invented using the examples provided.
  • Engrave a motif or design of your choice on a lino plate. Using various tools (gouges, cutters, etc.).
  • Print the design on your notebook: practice inking on rough paper before you start printing the final design on your notebook!
  • At the end of the workshop, you'll leave with your personalized notebook, as well as the engraving matrix so you can print again at home.

No special knowledge of bookbinding is required to take part in this workshop. The workshop is limited to 4 people, so Apolline can easily guide you all the way. A great gift idea!

2nd workshop with Apolline, and I'm still enjoying discovering her art. Very well run workshop with professionalism, generosity and passion. Very good atmosphere ... even as a beginner in everything, you feel well accompanied, supported and encouraged. I can only recommend her. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.

Apolline's workshop is very well structured: the steps are progressive and you achieve a very nice result in the allotted time. Her advice is clear and expert, and the atmosphere is relaxed. I had a great time and learned lots of tricks to help me progress independently!
