Countdown to Iowa Arts Festival: Altered Book show & sale


 Connie Roberts altered book with wooden whistle sculptures

It's that time of year, -so much going on it's hard to keep track. Here's something you may not know about- Iowa City Public Library Friends' Foundation's one and only Altered Book Exhibit and Sale.  This exhibit included books that have been "altered" and transformed for new meaning or purposes by local artists, who are donating the proceeds to the Friends' Foundation. The exhibit takes place Friday June 4, 5-7pm, in the Library meeting rooms off of the main lobby. Friends of the ICPL have an early preview of the Exhibition.  Friday is also when the Downtown Iowa City Gallery Walk kicks of Iowa Arts Festival (3-8pm, lots of music during and after. More on that in the next post.)
