An altered book is a published book that has been changed into a new work of visual art through various art processes such as painting, drawing, collage, writing, and embellishment.

Come create a work of art with us! We will transform books into something beautiful, unique and personal. Class will be presented by Gail Borden Library's own talented Billie M., who has experience creating many altered book projects.
