This latest in the Spineless Wonders series of events looks at small press and artists’ publications through the theme of touch. Artists, makers, academics and librarians will consider the book as a tactile object, asking how artists’ publications themselves invite and explore the sense of touch. 

This online event takes place on Friday 15 March, 11am–5pm. Free, reserve your place via Eventbrite.

For more details about the event see the Spineless Wonders: In Touch event page.
