“I was always taught to use bookmarks, and not to dogear pages,” admits maker LeAnn Ashley, who has now made peace with that ideology for the sake of art. See her creations at the next Art Walk on Union Saturday, April 2 in downtown Concord.
A few months ago, LeAnn Ashley stared in silence at the mounds of books on her dining room table in Harrisburg and asked no one in particular, “What are we going to do with all of these books?”
Art Walk on Union has grown in popularity with artists, makers and visitors at each new date. The third Art Walk on Union takes place Saturday April 2 in downtown Concord and features live music, food trucks, local brews and around 80 local artists and makers. Admission is free to the public, and the charge is $50 for artists to rent a booth. Learn more at www.cabarrusartscouncil.org/community/art-walk.
No books were harmed in the creation of LeAnn Ashley’s folded book art. “If someone wants to read the book, they can unfold the pages and read the words,” she said.
LeAnn Ashley’s folded book art collection includes hedgehogs, horses, cats, butterflies and other animals. See the whole herd at her Art Walk on Union booth Saturday, April 2 from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. in downtown Concord. Learn more at www.cabarrusartscouncil.org/community/art-walk.
