Kari Bronaugh

I am the CEO, chief of staff, diplomatic attaché, nerve centre, and grateful owner of BocHord Bookbinding. As a lifelong learner, my discovery of hand bookbinding in 2005 was taxing, thrilling, and life changing. 2016 and 2017 were big years for me as I completed the core curriculum at the Canadian Bookbinders and Book Artists Guild and moved my family of one obliging husband, two dogs, and three cats to Owen Sound. 2018 saw the creation of BocHord Bookbinding, and 2019 saw me starting to teach at The Georgian Bay Centre for the Arts. These days, I can be found working on my 10,000 hours at the bench, fulfilling commissions, teaching workshops, and sharing my journey on social media.
