$75 which includes a handmade bookbinding loom, supplies, and your book

This class is open to anyone interested in making new books, or taking care of his or her old books. Lee Street has studied bookbinding and book repair for many years. He used to teach bookbinding classes at Antigone Books on Fourth Avenue. Now Lee brings his valuable craft class and extensive book-care knowledge to Casa Libre. Students will produce their own hand bound book to keep, and Lee will provide each student with his or her own loom to take home and continue using. These will be the first in a series of classes to continue in 2006, including advanced bookbinding and book repair workshops.

Lee Street is Casa’s Vice President to the board of directors. Lee currently teaches studio and digital arts at Canyon del Oro high school. He has lived in Tucson with his wife Kate since 1998. He earned his BFA in arts education from the University of Arizona, and has worked with such arts education programs in Tucson  as the Arizona Mini Arts Academy. Lee is a photographer, printmaker, bookbinder, and the proud father of his and Kate’s daughter Zora. We are especially fortunate to have Lee’s high energy and endless creative skills to add to Casa Libre’s efforts.
