Tropic Bound Programs:
Our Shuttle Tours share a glimpse into the literary art hot spots of Miami. We have toured Little Haiti / Little River, Coral Gables / University of Miami, Wynwood / Hialeah areas, visiting with special collections, galleries, printmaking studios and independent book stores.
The Symposium invites experts, academics, artists, collectors, publishers and community organizers to take part in the global discussion revolving book arts, with a keynote speaker and a panel discussion diving into current trends, issues and concerns affecting the broader book art community.
Tropic Bound Artist / Publisher Talks bring together a rotating selection of artists and publishers to present nuanced topics, discussions and presentations.
The Fair at Tropic Bound showcases the work of over 140 exhibitors from around the world, focusing on hand-made artists' books, intricate bindings, and experimental narratives, materials and layouts.
Tropic Bound’s mission is to promote and support the work of book artists and raise awareness of book arts while providing opportunities for dialogue and a platform for national and international artists and publishers to exhibit, sell, and exchange artists’ books.
