OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | Please join us for the opening of “Gold Dusted: The Artistry of Arion Press Books”, an exhibition of fine edition artist books at the Robert Frost Stone House Museum.
The books are on loan from the collection of Crossett Library and have been donated by Cameo Wood, ’21. Visitors can hold and experience these gorgeous editions printed by Arion Press, which works with contemporary artists to reimagine literary classics in collaboration with expert bookmakers.
Robert Frost understood the importance of compatible artwork for his volumes of poetry and enjoyed a long-time partnership with the artist and illustrator J.J. Lankes who he collaborated with artistically for over 40 years. Works by Lankes, including some new displays of his work selected by Ximena Maldonado Mayans '25 and Jaren Gallo '25, will also be on view at the Museum.
The exhibition is on view at the Robert Frost Stone House Museum, which is open in May on weekends from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm, and in June opens five days a week, Thursday-Monday from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm, through October.
