Kristin Peterson | The Collector’s Cache – A Mixed-Media Book Workshop | Monday | August 3, 2026 | 9:00 am until 5:00 pm
$0.00
Join Kristin Peterson for an immersive mixed media book making experience.
We will use an easy-approachable binding principle that will create a quaintness to our books while allowing more to be added to later if you wish.
Pages will be built from recycled thin cardboard and provide structure.
Then, we will add vintage and handmade papers to add character and charm.
We will be purposeful in page selection as we pull this all together to include, making a small fabric bag to put our book into for safe keeping.
Kristin will be teaching this class three days this week — join us for one, two, or all three!
Each day will explore her core techniques, giving you the opportunity to build confidence, develop muscle memory, and deepen your understanding.
With each return, you’ll take your work a step further—ultimately creating a richly layered, personal book filled with your own unique marks and meaning.
WE WILL RELEASE SEATS FOR PURCHASE THE MORNING OF REGISTRATION.

Kristin is always exploring and expanding the creative depths of being an artist. She very much enjoys vintage collage work and mixed media. Kristin loves color and things that have a love-worn comfortable feeling-like an old favorite pair of jeans-coffee stained, patched, painted and well loved. She wants her art to project feeling and make people feel good while looking at it. Her style contains vibrance mixed with a little funk, which is sprinkled with discreet sensibility.
