The Book Arts Jam is coordinated by members of the Bay Area Book Artists (BABA). BABA is a grassroots, volunteer-powered book arts organization. Founder Jone Small Manoogian describes BABA as "a warm and friendly, loosely-organized group of artists, who support one another in all aspects of creating books." Members meet once a month to share information about upcoming exhibitions, demonstrate new skills, problem-solve works in progress, trade materials, and enjoy the company of others who are passionate about book arts. We also have monthly workshop sessions.

Visit BABA's Web site to learn more. Membership is free and open to anyone. Please come to one of our monthly meetings and find out how you can get involved.
