Make it Wild: Custom Bookbinding with Ellen Wilkins

February 4 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

In this class, students will learn case bookbinding techniques from local artist Ellen Wilkins. Each student will be able to fully customize their notebook to create a sketchbook, diary, or travel journal specific to their needs and practices. We will also discuss daily writing, sketching and planning practices in this class.

This class will take place from 6 – 8 p.m. on February 4, in the Museum Classroom.

Make it Wild courses are open to adults and young adults with beginner to intermediate abilities. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions during this interactive program.

  • $50 per Live In-Person Class
  • Limited to the first 20 participants

Your registration fee supports the Museum’s Art Leadership Scholarship in Honor of the Memory of Dick Jennings. Dick Jennings was a Museum board member whose memory inspires us to pursue our passions. The $4,000 scholarship is awarded annually to a local High School Senior who plans to study art at the college level. Thank you for your support!

About the artist: 

Ellen Wilkins found herself in Jackson four years ago after graduating from Clemson University during the pandemic. She quickly fell in love with skiing, the access to the outdoors and the beauty of this place. Her interests can be linked through a web of art, science, community, and continual learning; and have manifested in organic farming, gardening, printmaking and landscape design. Her favorite food is anything pickled, and one thing she truly misses about her home in South Carolina is her nieces and nephews.
