In celebration of the art of the word and National Poetry Month, Illahe Studios and Gallery hosts our Third Annual Artist Book Exhibit!   This year’s show continues the tradition with uniquely fresh and interesting artist books, many of which push the boundaries, or should we say “bindings” of what are typically considered books.

First Annual Rogue Arts Plus Poetry RAPP

Community exhibit of artist/poetry books

In addition to our juried artist books, we will show a special community exhibit of  Poetry Artist Books during the month of April.   The First Annual Rogue Art Plus Poetry was brought to us by book artist and poet, Michael Holstein.  Michael and fellow book artist, Sabina Nies, donated some lovely hand-bound blank books which we made available to the public for $3 each.  We are excited to have this display of community talent along with our juried artist books!
