Solander Style Box Workshop at the Rare Trades Centre

Craft your own solander box to store your keepsakes with expert guidance from bookbinder and conservator Debra Parry.

Learn the art of box-making, working with card and luxurious book cloth or buckram to build a stylish storage box. Perfect for safeguarding cherished books, keepsakes, or special documents, your custom box will be as practical as it is elegant.

Held at Ballarat’s Australian Centre for Rare Arts and Forgotten Trades, a world-class facility dedicated to learning and preserving Australia’s rare arts and trades through a series of workshops, masterclasses, events, and residencies.
