Book Making Bonanza: Banned Books Edition

October 4, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm

Book Making Bonanza at Randolph College's Lipscomb Library 10.04.2023

During Banned Book Week join Lipscomb Library and Maier Museum staff, volunteers, and student club FRAME members at Randolph College’s Lipscomb Library (north wing) to:

  • Assemble one-page art books from the Quarantine Public Library to be displayed at the Maier Museum during the upcoming 112th Annual Exhibition.
  • Turn old books into art! Collaborative to create an accordion folded book featuring blackout poetry and celebrating what we love most about banned books.

The Lipscomb Library will also have an exhibition of BANNED BOOKS and an exhibition of BOOKS AS ART on display from their collection on view October 3 through December 15, 2023, in the north wing of the library.

Randolph College’s interdisciplinary museum and heritage studies program inspired this collaboration between Lipscomb Library and the Maier Museum of Art in response to the museum’s 112th Annual Exhibition, Back to Front: Artists’ Books by Women.

Exhibition and Book Making Bonanza events are FREE and open to the general public. Join us if you love books and LET FREEDOM READ!
