The Midcoast Maine Book Arts group invites you to visit the Rockland Public Library for their Miniature Book Exhibition! Miniature books, by definition, are expected to be no bigger than 3" x 3" x 3" providing an interesting and fun challenge to book artists. Many libraries have collections of miniature books from much earlier times, including Bibles, devotional books, Shakespeare plays, and more. This exhibition includes work by 15 members of the artist book group.

A reception, open to the public, will be on Tuesday, January 14 from 5:30pm.

Midcoast Maine Book Arts is a collective formed to promote, encourage, and educate working and aspiring book artists in the midcoast Maine area. It seeks to exhibit the work of its members and other book artists, host workshops about artists' books, and to build interest in the general public about this art form.
