last night saw the MA Book Arts final exhibition - a really interesting group this year with some exciting possibilities for the future - a packed wilsons rd - a wonderful crowd - several ‘generations’ of Book Art Alumni - the work looked excellent and people looking at books - what more could you ask for - got home at 12.00 ready for a busy day at NUCA for training on AVA today
