About this Event
Explore and interact with a curated selection of books, periodicals, posters, sketches, original art, and related ephemera that chronicle the history of written communications. From the invention of writing and medieval manuscripts to the advent of print and the proliferation of digital type, our collection illuminates humankind’s ongoing engagement with written expression. Please note that the tour focus will vary according to the expertise of the host.
This in-person tour will be hosted by Kate Long Stellar.
