Tunnel books are comprised of a series of pages that are held together with accordion hinges. The books are “read” through openings that allow the reader to see through the entire book to the back cover, creating the illusion of depth and perspective.
Learn the basics of tunnel book construction and collage in this fun, 3 hour workshop! Students will be provided with a kit to construct the outer case and the insides frames or pages. Students may choose bring their own images, photos, and paper to create a narrative, or may choose from a supply provided.
Note: the Tunnel Book and Paper Circuits workshops are designed as a series; students who sign up for both will learn to create a light-up tunnel book. These workshops can also be taken independently.
Level: This class is appropriate for students at all levels.
