'American Book Artist looking for work in Tirana, Albania' Art and Artists  

Ashley (216.210.229.18) -

Hello. I am an American citizen looking to move to Tirana, Albania to teach book arts. It seems like book arts would be a good subject to teach because it could incorporate so much of the change that is already happening in Albania. A place to hold notes, pictures, documentation of the changes, histories, language and any other type of materials someone would want to place in a book. The learning of how to make a book from scratch is fun for kids as well as adults.

I've taught English in Japan for three years. I also speak, read and write in Japanese. I do not know the Albanian language yet, however am doing my best to learn with the resources available in America.

I would love to go to Tirana, Albania and teach kids and adults how to create their own hand-bound books. I would certainly be willing to teach using English as the primary language to facilitate learning a new art form as well as language... That seems like a challenging task.

I also have a fine-art degree in painting and printmaking.

Please contact me if there might be an opportunity in your institution.

Respectfully,

Ashley
