Virtual program through Horticulture Education.
Adults.
Join Curator Melanie Bump as we take an artistic look at the books. Books, in their own right, can be considered works of art, and using an aesthetic eye we will explore the artistic nature of the Elizabeth B. Kay Rare Book Collection. Contained within the rare books are tiny exhibitions of gorgeous drawings, illustrations, prints, and works of art. Through this special look, we will see the stunning, beautiful, and artsy side of the rare book collection.
Cost: $10 per person.
Contact: Preregistration is required. For more information, 973.326.7601.
