Description
Octavofest, a month-long celebration of book arts, is held in Cleveland each October. The Ingalls Library was among the first institutions to participate. This year the Ingalls Library and Art Books Cleveland (ABC) have collaborated on the “Travel Journal Project.” ABC members have created original individual travel journal artists books that will be on display in the Ingalls Library from October 1-November 1. Each artist has created at least one new, never exhibited, travel journal for the project. The project was inspired by the donation of Franny Taft’s personal travel diaries to the museum archives.
On October 16 the beautifully crafted books will be moved from the Ingalls Library to the North Court Lobby in the Ames Family Atrium where they be displayed for the evening and many of the artists are on-hand to discuss their work. This exciting project is the result of a year-long collaboration by ABC members.
