Tunnel & Flag Books

ONLINE via Zoom

Create expandable books with depth and perspective. A flag book has an expandable spine with layers of paper “flags” that pop out, making it a delightful structure for evoking movement and action. Tunnel books, also known as “peep show” books, expand for a dramatic three-dimensional effect through layered cut-out panels. Students will complete a finished book of both structures, plus models and ideas for variations.

This workshop requires a kit that will be mailed to registered students via USPS.
