Event Status
Scheduled

Hosted by the students of INF 386E: Planning/Understanding Exhibits, this exhibit aims to inform the audience about the practice of hand tooling as a physical signifier of the value of information. Through a collection of tools and book covers, the exhibit explores the process and labor of becoming a craftsperson, how physical decoration indicates information's value, and the importance of preserving both the artifacts and the practice.

The exhibit will run on weekdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., from November 11 - 21. It will be housed in the UT Administration Building. A closing reception will be hosted at the exhibit from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. on Thursday, November 21.
