The Bibliophile as Bookbinder: The Angling Bindings of S.A. Neff, Jr. Opening Reception

Bookbinder S.A. Neff, Jr. has spent over five decades growing a collection of angling books into a proper library of three thousand volumes, dating from 1554, with a focus on fly-fishing for trout and salmon. For over two decades he has focused his own binding efforts exclusively on work for his angling library. The Bibliophile as Bookbinder, his traveling exhibition and career retrospective, opens at MCBA with a reception and documentary screening from 6-9 pm on February 23. Come learn about the art of binding from a master of the craft! The exhibition runs through June 3 in the Main Gallery at MCBA.
