The “HeArt of the Book” Show

By

I am delighted to participate in:

Loveland Artists Collective Presents A National Juried Book Arts Show:

The HeART of the Book

February 14th – March 28th, 2020

“The book has long been treasured as a literary work of art, but it is often forgotten in the realm of visual art.   Book arts have been around as long as humanity has been writing and reading, but within the last couple of decades, the book arts have become increasingly diverse and innovative.     The Loveland Artists Collective has been invited to show this group exhibition at Artworks, which is the largest Studio Artist Community in Northern Colorado dedicated to advancing the contemporary arts and visual artists.

(click here for more info on Artworks).  

Artists will be on display in the South Gallery at Artworks in downtown Loveland from February 14th – March 28th.  This exhibit will be promoted and included in the Loveland Sweetheart Festival, which occurs February 14-16, 2020 .  The festival is expected to bring 35,000 visitors along with the normal foot traffic Loveland receives during this important month.”
