Bookagami Workshop with Adrienne Biggs

Experience the creative thrill of transforming discarded books into beautiful, sculptural art at Ground with the award-winning Marin artist Adrienne Biggs, the originator behind Bookagami. This hands-on Bookagami Workshop guides participants through the meditative and inventive practice of folding and repurposing books, turning forgotten pages into whimsical three-dimensional masterpieces that celebrate sustainability and creativity.

Workshop Highlights

Adrienne Biggs, whose Bookagami art has captivated Marin, will introduce her unique approach - melding origami, altered books, and circular economy principles—to help every attendee fold up to three books into works of art.

• Learn Bookagami techniques: Start with simple folds and progress to more complex forms, suitable for all skill levels.

• Embrace sustainability: Discover how book folding diverts books from the landfill and gives them renewed purpose.

• Connect and create: Enjoy a convivial, supportive atmosphere where creativity flourishes and every fold is an act of discovery.

• Take home your art: Finish the session with a personalized Bookagami sculpture to display at home or give as a gift, and the skills to keep folding.
