đOctober Updatesđ
Happy fall season! Hope everyone is having a great October so far. We have some fun updates to share with you all.
As you probably know, BULK loves its art booksâŚso no surprise that we will be at this yearâs Detroit Art Book fair :) Stop by to say hi and see what new stuff weâve got out! The event is free and open to the public.
Founded in 2013, the Detroit Art Book Fair is an annual event that takes place at Trinosophes. Each year, the fair brings together dozens of independent publishers, artists, writers, and collectors to present their books, zines, and prints to the public
One of the books that you definitely donât want to miss at our table is Sara Nishikawaâs âwhen life gives you lemons, you have options.â Sara is a talented artist here in Detroit and runs Mostly Butter, a food based residency out of her house where you will bake, cook, and eat food together. This awesome little zine includes recipes for Lemon Curd, Lemon Loaf Cake, & Lemon Bars. Hope to see you all there!
