The 11th annual International Edible Book Show and Tea took place on Sunday, April 11 around tea time at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. Several dozen “bookish” entries were created by artists of wide-ranging age and ability. All ingredients in the creations were to be edible, though were not required to be tasty. The entries in the gallery show were displayed and admired until a bell rang at 5pm, then most of the books were consumed and became history.
The event was sponsored by the Book Arts League, a non-profit community organization devoted to the arts of the book including workshops, art exhibits, and other inedible events open to the public <http://www.eatyourwordsboulder.com>.
Look for our next Edible Book Show to happen again sometime around April Fool’s Day, 2011.
