I'm serious: I'll post information about the 2nd one (curated by, i presume, Lee Hansley, and will be at his gallery in down town Raleigh, but details have been vauge) as soon as i possibly can, but if your in KINSTON, NC (cuz everyone loves that place) I'm part of a group exhibtion of bookplates. Ex Libris is the brain child of Charles P. Brooks, the man is sort of an enigma, and he seems to cast his will on the universe and low and behold we all make it happen. So bookplates.
