40th HBC ANNUAL MEMBERS' Exhibition

The 2012 40th HBC Anniversary Exhibition will open at the Green Library at Stanford in July, 2012. It will be a two-part show. As well as the usual display of current members’ work, there will be a retrospective of work done throughout the life of HBC. Some of these bindings will come from Stanford’s holdings, others will be loans from personal collections. Because it will be larger than usual, entries will be limited to one piece per binder. It will help us enormously if you return this Intent to Enter form by March 1st.
