I’m off to the Codex Book Fair on Friday… will any of you be there? I’ll be in Booth 167, and I’m looking forward to it! For those of you who don’t know about it, this is the 3rd biennial event, where “the most distinguished book artists and artisans, private presses, and fine art publishers will be exhibiting their art and craft”. It takes place at the Craneway Pavillion in Richmond, CA and starts on Sunday.
I’m skipping town on Friday to visit a friend in SF prior to the fair and will be staying a couple of days afterwards with a childhood friend in Palo Alto. And, lucky me! Daria Wilber (who interned in my studio last month) will be helping me at the fair.
