How does the Folger team handle all of the many pieces to take an exhibit from an idea to reality?

Join us for a conversation between Curator of Manuscripts Heather Wolfe and Antonio Alcalá, founder of Studio A, as they discuss the back-and-forth between curators, conservators, and designers in creating the Folger’s current temporary exhibition, Little Books, Big Gifts. They will provide more details about how they took an abstract concept to a physical reality!

Registration is recommended, but drop-ins are always welcome.
