As you plan your schedules for Gulf Wars, consider please two Al-Mahala classes in your choices:<div><br></div><div><span style="font-weight:bold">Thursday, from 10-noon, Class Tent A, Intro to Islamic Book Binding</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">This hands-on class covers the basics of constructing and covering an Islamic envelope-flap-style binding, used across the Islamic world from ~900 AD to present times. We will create a book block, cover the book, and learn some simple tooling embellishment (if we have time). Also included is a brief overview of the history of Islamic book bindings. Some prior experience is helpful, but not required.</span><br>
</div><div>Class fee: $15</div><div>Limit: 5 hands-on, unlimited observers</div><div>Ages 16+</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-weight:bold">Friday, from 1-3, Class Tent B, Islamic Book Binding Embellishment</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">This class will be an overview of Islamic bookbinding embellishment styles in SCA period, from Mamluk Egyptian bindings to Mughal Indian bindings (and everything in between). We'll talk about leatherwork, gilding, painting, and cutwork. Builds on the Intro to Islamic Bookbinding class (bring your book if you made one).</span><br>
</div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">Class fee: none</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">Limit: None</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">Ages 16+</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">I am teaching both of these. If you aren't going to be at Gulf Wars but would like a handout, send me an email and let me know! I don't have one for the embellishment class, but am happy to chat about it with anyone.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">Thank you all for your time!</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif"><br>
</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">In service,</span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans,sans-serif">THL Margavati Bai</span></div>
