WHAT IS THE BOOK ARTS JAM?
The Book Arts Jam is a one-day celebration of the book arts that takes place at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills, California.
Join us for a “behind-the-scenes” look at the creative processes, tools, and techniques used by book artists.
* Galleries of books (You’ll be able to open and touch many of the books on display.)
* Artist talks and slideshows (Listen, question, hear secrets, and admire fine work.)
* Book artists and craftspeople participating as exhibitors (Ask them questions about their processes and products—and buy some of their work.)
* Printers (Watch them work their presses and find out why they print this way.)
WHO PUTS ON THE JAM?
Members of Bay Area Book Artists (BABA) put on the Jam. BABA is a grassroots, volunteer-powered book arts organization. Founder Jone Small Manoogian describes BABA as “a warm and friendly, loosely-organized group of artists, who support one another in all aspects of creating books.” Members meet once a month to share information about upcoming exhibitions, demonstrate new skills, problem-solve works in progress, trade materials, and enjoy the company of others who are passionate about book arts. We also have monthly workshop sessions.
Membership is open to anyone. Visit BABA’s Web site to learn more. Please come to one of our monthly meetings and find out how you can get involved.
Foothill College is proud to help sponsor the Book Arts Jam. Our printmaking and book arts courses are taught by actively exhibiting artists and professional designers. Our graphic arts studios are energized environments for both mastering craft and producing works of cultural expression in the graphic arts. Courses are offered through the Graphic & Interactive Design Department. www.foothill.edu/print_arts
The Book Arts Jam is co-sponsored by Bay Area Book Artists and Foothill College, and funded in part by a grant from the Associated Students Foothill College (ASFC) and Arts Council Silicon Valley in partnership with the County of Santa Clara and the National Endowment for the Arts.
