Camera Club: Make your own photo book

Looking to get your digital photos off your phone and into the physical world? Head over to the Toronto Reference Library for a morning dedicated to the rich history and hands-on craft of the photo book.

Hosted at the library's innovation hub in the heart of Yorkville, this workshop invites participants to bring along 8 to 12 of their favorite digital photos. You will dive into a brief discussion on the history of the photo book before diving straight into the creative process—sequencing your images, layout design, and printing your very own mini photography zine to take home.

What to Expect Whether you are an aspiring photographer or just have a camera roll full of memories waiting to be curated, no prior experience is necessary. Library staff will guide you through the basics of sequencing and assembly.
