The Virginia Arts of the Book Center proudly presents its 2013 Collaborative project, a“Bookmaker’s Dozen” of miniature books. This set of fifteen handmade miniature books showcases a variety of printing styles including letterpress, lithography, etching, & giclée and a variety of folding/binding styles including coptic, stiff board, accordion, and non-adhesive bindings.

The books are the work of 27 local artists who’ve created works to a 2″ x 3″ scale. While editions of each book may exist in 20-50 copies, only 15 copies of the complete collection will be made in a handsome collector’s boxed set.

A small number of complete collector’s sets remain ($1,200). Contact for inquiries.
