Demystifying the Pop-up Book, in Philadelphia

Since I now have a 3-year-old Portuguese Water Dog, Nori (yes—hypoallergenic 😄), I’ve been traveling less… which means for the first time, I’ll be hosting a 5-day intensive master class in pop-up book structures in my newly renovated Philadelphia studio. It’s been a true labor of love, and for the first time, I can share my large-scale works with you in this space—Noodle Mountain and A Day in the Terraced Rice Fields.

Because it’s my first time teaching here, I’m keeping it small and focused: 4 (minimum to run)–8 students max, at the end of June. You’ll have access to my tools, printers, books, and materials. You can see images of past student work here. On the final day, we’ll visit my new exhibition in Chinatown and celebrate with dinner nearby.

$1400 · Mon–Fri, June 22-26. 9am–4pm. All levels welcome.

If you’re coming from out of town, I’ll be sharing housing options soon—a lot is happening in Philadelphia this summer. Come visit, learn, share, and make art together.

Hope to see you in Philadelphia soon!
