Every year Pace University, Westchester, welcomes a new group of artists and writers for the annual Handmade/Homemade Exhibit, curated by Deborah M. Poe.
The mini-exhibition includes handmade, homemade and letterpress chapbooks, one-of-a-kind editions, and broadsides. The exhibit takes place the entire month of March in the Mortola Library at Pace University. Each year two events accompany the Handmade/Homemade Exhibit: a bookmaking workshop/demonstration and an opening/reading.
The permanent special collection of Homemade/Handmade books was installed at Pace University, Westchester, in Mortola Library, in fall of 2011. The books were donated by past contributors/exhibitors of the Handmade/Homemade annual exhibit.
Grateful acknowledgement is made to Jill Magi for the use of her art for the Handmade/Homemade site (above)—“Tongues”, 2007.
