WORKSHOP SERIES
Do you live, work, or play in downtown Richmond? Jonathan Lee, the University of Richmond Downtown, and Boatwright Library’s Book Arts Studio invite individuals of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in creating a portrait of Richmond’s downtown community.

Participants were given a handmade 12 page book (for notes and sketches) and a 10.5" x 8.5" board (for the final piece). You can read my overview of the workshop HERE.
