The Guild of Book Workers is thrilled to announce its upcoming 2024-25 traveling juried exhibition, NIGHT CIRCUS. This theme promises to invoke curiosity with its Spectacle, fascination with Artistry and Performance, exploration of the Mysterious and Luminous, investigation of Clandestine actions and Secret knowledge, and embrace of Chaos and Otherness.
Members have been invited to interpret the theme either literally or abstractly, and we will be taking viewers ‘behind the curtain’ by encouraging participants to include documentation of their creative process as part of their submissions.
