Exhibitions

Each year we hold a special summer exhibition and monthly featured artist exhibitions. Check the calendar above for ongoing updates on our exhibition series at Ox-Bow House.

Between the Leaves Workshop Series

Join us for a series of workshops at Ox-Bow House this summer! Workshop themes are inspired by our current exhibition Between the Leaves: Print, Paper, and Artist Books at Ox-Bow. No registration for workshops is required but space is limited.

Accordion Books

Facilitating Artist: Honore Lee
Date of Workshop: Saturday, September 21, 2024
Time: 2:00–5:00 p.m.
Location: Ox-Bow House
Workshop Fee: $20.00

Workshop Description: In this workshop, students will be introduced to the artist’s book as a creative process through exploration of the Accordion book structure. We will begin with a series of brief demos accompanied by examples, discussion of tools, and techniques as well as the history of the Accordion form and its variations. This workshop is appropriate for artists wanting an introduction to artists’ books as well as for those interested in artistic expression with the book form.

Artist Bio: Honore grew up in Michigan, where she earned both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in art from Western Michigan University in 1994. While raising a family, she worked as Coordinator of the ARTreach program at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts, an art reviewer, and maintained a busy studio practice. Since 2001, she has worked as a Teaching Artist with the Aesthetic Education program and Education for the Arts. This methodology not only changed her teaching practice, but altered her life and her art-making experience in profound ways.
