Create a custom photo album book that has pages for both protecting your photographs and allowing you to record the stories they tell! Bring your photos out of boxes in the closet and mount them in a lovely book that can be leafed through for years. Your handwritten accounts of the history behind those photos will be cherished. (This would make a great holiday gift!)
Students will bring 10 photographs measuring 4x6 or 3x5 to class and organize them into a book of content. The curating process and some journaling exercises will help students tie the photos into a storyline and write about their experiences in the pages adjoining the photographic memories. The written pages and mounted photographs are then bound in a beautiful hardback book complete with decorative paper covers and book cloth spine.
