Coptic Bookbinding
A Shire A&S Class
Learn how to bind your own book!
We will be putting together a coptic bound book
approximately 6x9x1 in size. The coptic technique
dates from the 4th century and features exposed
stitching across the spine. It allows the book to lay
flat when opened and provides many opportunities
for creativity. It will be easy for you to reproduce when
you’ve left class! Handouts and supplies will be
provided.

On Wednesday, March 21st, from 7:30 to 9:30 pm, at the Chuchville Nature Center
in Churchville, PA. I will be giving a special presentation on the Art and
Culture of the Anglo-Saxons.

In this presention, we will cover art produced within the Anglo-Saxon period of
English history, beginning with the Migration period style that the Anglo-Saxons
brought with them in the 5th century, and ending in 1066 with the Norman
Conquest of a large Anglo-Saxon nation-state whose sophisticated art was
influential in much of northern Europe.

On Wednesday April 4th, from 7:30 to 9:30 pm, the shire will be hosting a
History Movie Night at the Churchville Nature Center in Churchville, PA.

The featured movie will be on the Anglo-Saxons, 400 to 1066 AD.
