Every artist and every piece of art has a beginning but often ends up somewhere else. It’s called PROCESS. \nJoin us on February 20th at 7PM for a guided gallery tour by Book Arts Roundtable Coordinator and one of the book artists whose work is part of this year’s exhibit\, Chris Schorr. Chris\, a longtime Madison resident\, has been a member of the Book Arts Roundtable of New Jersey for more than a decade. She is familiar with each artist whose work is part of BOOKED 19\, is passionate about the book arts\, and has been active in the process of organizing this exhibit.

This dynamic book will be the center of your collection because when finished\, it folds flat and ties shut\, but when opened\, it unfolds in several directions. \nThis workshop on February 22 at 1PM is open to adults (15 and over). Participants\, please bring a heavy book (like a textbook) in a plastic bag to use as a weight on the book as it is being constructed. All other materials and tools will be provided. This workshop is limited to 10 adults. Registration closes February 19. \n \nAbout the Artist: Book Arts Roundtable artist Catherine Olivier is a children’s book author and illustrator with a long career in plush toy marketing and design. She currently divides her time between Long Valley\, NJ and Glen Burnie\, MD.
