The Horizon Exhibition is coming soon to the great
Northwest! The last of six stops on its national tour will be the Collins
Memorial Library, University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington. The show
will be on display February 3-March 30, 2014.
On March 15, the Collins Library will host a special event
open to members of the Guild of Book Workers, Puget Sound Book Artists, and The
Book Arts Guild. Three members with work in the show--Suzanne Moore, Monica
Holtsclaw, and Susan Collard--will give presentations in the morning, followed
by a catered lunch at the library. There will, of course, be time to tour the
Horizon Exhibition. In the afternoon, the group will travel to nearby Pacific
Lutheran University, with printing demos by Jessica Spring and Chandler O’Leary
at Elliott Press and an exhibit of Tacoma Wayzgoose prints. Information on
registering for the event will be available in January. For GBW members traveling
from out of town to take part, there will additional opportunities to get
together for meals and museum-going as well as carpools.
Special thanks to Paula Jull, our chapter chair, for her leadership
in getting the exhibit to the Northwest, and to Jane Carlin, director of the
Collins Library, for being an enthusiastic supporter of the book arts. We hope
as many members as possible will make it to Tacoma to see the show.
Registration for the event opens January 16--please see complete info at the Puget Sound Book Artists website.
