Meeting information: The chapter runs a weekly group for 'Book Art’ in Warkworth at the Kowhai Art and Craft Centre. We mostly do our own projects, but share ideas and techniques to create new books. We do usually have a project day once a month. During the summer we make paper, use different techniques for decorating papers, paste papers, marbelling, decoupage etc. We hold a few workshops each year, invited tutors to teach us new things. We enjoy working with papers mostly, but do make mixed media book covers and enjoy 'Textile Art' also. They usually hold a Workshop for beginners once a year to encourage and teach new people Book Art. Some of our group are ABC members and enjoy attending the ABC workshops and meetings
