OCAD U presentsthe 26th annual Book Arts Fair!
SATURDAY DECEMBER 4th
10am – 5pm
On Saturday, December 4, 2010, OCAD U holds its 26th annual Book Arts Fair, where, in time for the holiday season, visitors can browse and purchase hand-printed and bound books, prints, artist multiples, handmade paper and cards, buttons, totes, letterpress posters and much more.
Fifty to sixty book artists, printmakers, very small publishers, ‘zine’ makers, OCAD U students, professional artists, letterpress printers, papermaking and printmaking suppliers, and cooperative print shops will all be on hand offering unique gifts, collectors items and other treasures. The OCAD U Book Arts Fair is a long-running annual venue for showcasing book arts, a passionate, underground form of visual arts that has been growing in popularity.
This year, the OCAD U Book Arts Fair is pleased to welcome musical guests Lemon Bucket Orkestra, who will be playing live throughout the day.
Proceeds from mounting the Fair, and from donations and the sale of raffle tickets support student book artists and printmakers in OCAD U’s Printmaking program.
Participants include T.E.S.T. member missquitecontrary.Any other T.E.S.T.y people going to be there? Let us know!
Oh I love the book arts fair! I graduated from OCAD printmaking in 2002 and attended the book arts fair as a vendor and visitor for many years. Its a great show.
