July 3rd, 2012 by allancho | Comments Off on “A Pocketful of Rhymes” presented by the Westcoast Calligraphy (July 3 to July 29th, 2012)
The theme of spring-time and gardens encourages different designs of colour, illustration, bookbinding, and paper making, within the mutual interest in the art of letters. “A Pocketful of Rhymes” has been a travelling exhibition displayed throughout the lower mainland, including Cloverdale Library and Fleetwood Public Library in Surrey, and the Kay Meek Centre in West Vancouver, B.C. Accompanying this month-long art exhibition at the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre will be a public lecture by Professor Judi Saltman from the School of Library, Archival, and Information Studies on July 26, 2012.
