WORKSHOPS
Coptic Style BOOK Binding WORKSHOP
Coptic Style Binding is one of Kuro’s Workshop’s core offerings and serves as a strong foundation for further bookbinding study. In this class, students will learn exposed-spine sewing techniques while constructing a fully functional book by hand.
While this structure supports progression into more advanced bindings, the class itself is approachable and engaging. It is well suited to both new and returning students who want to build confidence with hand sewing and gain a deeper understanding of book structure.

Turkish Map Book Workshop
In this two-day intermediate class, students will create a traditionally bound book that incorporates folded maps designed to open and close seamlessly with the pages. The book itself follows a conventional structure, while the maps are carefully folded and attached so they open fully when a page is turned and fold flat when the book is closed.
The class focuses on precision, sequencing, and problem-solving as students learn how larger folded elements can function smoothly within a bound volume. This class is ideal for students with prior binding experience who are interested in integrating complex components into book structures.
