Let's Make a Junk Journal!

Junk Journals are the newest craze. This workshop will show you, step by step, how to make your own junk journal from start to finish. Using a Triscuit box, or other boxes of that type, you will cover the box, create 4 signatures using a variety of papers and materials, sew the signatures into the journal, and begin adding stickers, charms, or whatever you wish to your finished journal. This class is suitable for ages 15 and up. 

All materials will be provided. You may bring your own box if you have one, but there will be boxes for you to use. Please bring a ruler and a pencil with you.

About your instructor: Marsha McNeely Hierl has been involved with the Winston-Salem art scene since 2010 when she opened Studio 7 on Trade Street. Her idea was to create a gallery to give new artists their first show, while providing 7 affordable studios for local artists. After closing Studio 7, she became a full time studio artist at CultureWS, where she focuses on book making, mosaics, and watercolors. Marsha is the current president of AAWS, past president of DADA, and AFAS artist, and a member of the Yadkin Arts Council. She is also an artomat artist and loves to bring new artists into the program.

This class is offered at a drastically reduced price thanks to the generous funding from the Shallow Ford Foundation.
