The Art of Storymaking for the 21st Century: A Free Workshop in Personal Book Creation

The Art of Storymaking for the 21st Century, a free workshop at the West Hollywood Library, will be led by artist and art educator Debra Disman, owner of Artifactory Studio in Santa Monica  (www.artifactorystudio.com).  The event will  be held in the Library’s Community Room.  

Disman will teach hands-on techniques in visual arts, craft and creative writing. Using these skills, participants will design their own personal one-of-a-kind books.  A discussion about the function, purpose and meaning of the book as object will also be included in the adults-only event.  Refreshments and supplies will be provided and parking will be validated.

The workshop is sponsored by the Friends of the West Hollywood Library (FOL), a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit that is committed to the promotion and enhancement of the library’s collections, facilities and programs. 

Operated by FOL, the onsite bookstore will have a 50% off sale, also on April 12, from 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.  The workshop and book sale are being held in celebration of National Library Week’s countywide celebration, Books, Book, Books.
