The Lost Art of Cardmaking and Letter-Locking: An educational makerspace to create and learn the incredible history of cards and letters.

On Friday December 5 and Tuesday December 9, the Publishing and Creativity Studio is hosting an educational makerspace where we will explore the fascinating history of cardmaking and “letter-locking” as well as try some of these techniques ourselves. Stop by Milne 319 any time from 12-3 PM on 12/5 or 12/9 to learn something new and make a card for a friend, faculty member, or loved one. Take a break from studying to get creative and express gratitude at the end of the semester! We hope to see you there!...
