Bound in Beauty: Create Your Own Collector’s Edition

6 Jul 2025

12:30 - 14:30

University of Bradford

Have you ever walked into a bookshop, picked up a collector’s edition of your favourite classic, and been completely captivated by its beauty? 

Inspired by the new Vintage Collector’s Classics series, which celebrates both Romantic and Gothic literature, you’ll learn the art of marbling, experiment with design techniques, and craft a cover that’s as beautiful as the story inside. 

Whether you’re drawn to the elegance of Jane Austen and Louisa May Alcott or the dark intrigue of Oscar Wilde and Mary Shelley, this workshop will give you the space to bring your own creative vision to life. 

Be sure to bring your own book to transform! 

The recommended age for this event is 16+. Under 18's must be accompanied by an over 18 ticket holder.
