The Art of the Book – Do more than read
books; come to “The Art of The Book” at Orchard Artworks’ on Sunday, February 2
and find books that the craftspeople have made into works of art.  During the opening reception from 1:00 pm to
4:00 pm, you can see how artists have painted, embroidered, and carved books
into new art forms. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet children’s author,
Captain Morey, hear his reading from his recent work Thistledown’s Birthday, and purchase an autographed copy.  The show and

books will be available from Sunday February 2 to Sunday February 23.



Gallery hours are 10:00 am-4:00 pm Friday and Saturday, and 1:00 -4:00 pm on Sunday.  Orchard Artworks is a cooperative of forty local artists working in contemporary craft and fine art.  It is in a 200+ year old farm house at 520 Tomlinson Road, Bryn Athyn, PA 19006.  For information contact 215-947-9882 or www.orchardartworks.org.
