“Old School, New Worlds” explores the futures of book arts and works on paper that respond to the distorted, paperless, alternate worlds that we’re constantly coaxed into.

The Elementalist’s Almanac is an Interactive exhibit created by @sean_suchara that explores different ways that making art can be used as a vessel to reconnect people and nature. The exhibit of drawings are accompanied by the unique tools that are crafted from found materials in Jersey City’s diverse landscapes, prompting us to reimagine a new aesthetic of our urban environments.

The Library as a Garden is a collaboration between @magaliduzant and @christinalabey examining the connection between humans and plants through the lens of the archive. Using plants, watercolor, and writing the exhibit brings attention to the often-overlooked presence of nature in the urban landscape.
