AMERICAN ACADEMY OF BOOKBINDING

Founded in Telluride, Colorado, in 1993 by Tini Miura, Einen Miura, and Daniel Tucker, the American Academy of Bookbinding is an internationally known diploma-oriented bookbinding school where students of all levels have the opportunity to initiate and improve their skills in a generous and supportive learning environment. A program of the Ah Haa School for the Arts, the American Academy of Bookbinding conducts intensive courses in the art of fine leather binding, book repair, paper conservation, book history, and other related subjects. Our goal is to provide a superior bookbinding education and to award professional-level diplomas to those students who develop the knowledge and skills to produce the highest quality of work.

The American Academy of Bookbinding is unique in the United States in its ability to offer a flexible low-residency diploma program in bookbinding, taught by some of the most experienced and highly regarded bookbinders and conservators in the world. Students can progress through the diploma program at a pace that works best for their circumstances, attending classes as often as their busy lives allow. There are also many introductory courses offered, and students may attend some classes with little or no experience. The training that students receive at the American Academy of Bookbinding will provide them with a level of skill and understanding that ensures quality and confidence in their work, whether they are already established professionals or are just getting started in the field.
