Focus on Book Arts 2024 Conference

The 15th Focus on Book Arts conference offers five full days of workshops that appeal to beginning as well as advanced book artists. You can come for just one workshop or for the entire conference; a range of class lengths let you tailor an experience just for you.

We are excited to be holding the 2024 conference at our new location, the campus of Western Oregon University in Monmouth, Oregon.

Introduction to Artist Books explores a variety of methods and materials that will be used to create a series of artist books. Over the course of 3 days, students will learn and practice different bookbinding structures, the art of Suminagashi paper marbling, and basic block printing techniques. At the end of the workshop students will have created a library of artist books, structure models, and decorated papers to take home for further creation.
