Book Arts
WSW’s Book Arts equipment allow artists to create and bind work, ranging from the simplest saddle-stitched book to the finest codex.
Learn more about renting our studios here, or contact our Studio Manager Chris Petrone at [email protected] or (845) 658-9133 for more information.
The bindery is perpendicular to the gallery hallway with a door that swings inwards. In addition to flat files, industrial paper cutters, and other bookmaking materials, there is a large low worktable in the center of the room. This studio has a lot of large equipment to navigate. If that presents an access issue, please let staff know and we will do our best to make alternatives available.
