About the Book Arts Studio
Below you will find a brief overview of our space. For more detailed information please see the current Code of Conduct for our spaces and for further questions email: parsonsprintshop@newschool.edu.
The Book Arts Studio is a part of the Making Center; functioning both as open work space and classroom. Students are required to take a course or attend an orientation to utilize the Printmaking/Book Arts spaces.
The Printmaking + Book Arts Studios are community studios in which members work alongside one another sharing space and equipment. It is important that users are conscious of treating others with respect and dignity and uphold the tenets of our Shared Community Agreement.
At this time, the Book Arts Studio is open to students that are currently enrolled in a Book Arts course. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to one of our technicians.
