Books Kids Can Make!

 

Kids and the book arts are a magical combination. Making books is a perfect combination of artistic expression and emerging literacy. When kids make books by hand, they forge a personal connection to reading, to writing, to making art. And it's endless fun.

You can explore the Center's Youth Programs in several ways to find the ones that best suit your needs. Intrigued by the pictures below? Click any one to learn more. Or click any topic in the column to the left. Or contact Cathy Miranker at 415-738-2132 or by email for more information.

Consider taking a workshop--or two or three or more!--during our 2nd annual Summer Bookmaking Intensive for Teachers from June 20th through June 26th. Click here for details.
