We are thrilled to welcome Bechori to Canada for the very first time! Known internationally for his expressive journaling and signature monoline lettering style, Bechori brings his thoughtful and creative approach to this special Traveler’s Notebook Collage Workshop.

If you’ve ever wanted to capture your memories in a way that feels as beautiful as the moment itself, this class is for you. Bechori will guide you through simple yet impactful collage techniques to help you create rich, layered journal spreads that reflect your days, moods, and travels. You’ll explore how to use washi tape, stickers, stamps, handwriting, and paper ephemera, all while learning about balance, storytelling, and visual composition.

This workshop is designed for journaling enthusiasts of all levels or with no prior experience. Just bring your curiosity and your Traveler’s Notebook if you have one, and leave with techniques to create meaningful pages that are uniquely yours.
