exhibitions and outreach.  Our commitment is to build a strong community as well as

Open meetings, hosted lectures, classes  and continuous online discussion groups
all contribute to building a strong book  arts community in Los Angeles.  We

and boxes, and everything between and beyond.  The Los Angeles Book Arts Center
