Handwritten, Handbound —
Canberra Craft Bookbinders' Guild & Canberra Calligraphy Society

19 October–11 November » Gallery

The Canberra Craft Bookbinders' Guild is dedicated to promoting the art of the hand-bound book, and this sumptuous survey of works will feature their best in both traditional bookbinding designs and more contemporary alternative bindings. Members of the Canberra Calligraphy Society are passionate about the beauty of letters; their works will illustrate older, traditional scripts used in pre-printing years, modern scripts and artistic ways of interpreting words. There will also be many examples of how these two hand crafts combine in stunning ways.

Exhibition opening > Friday 19 October > 6:00pm
Meet the artists > Sunday 28 October > 3:00pm
Demonstrations > Throughout the exhibition by the exhibiting artists
