IX Arts is coming up on October 23rd-27th. I love that Illuxcon is a place where we can come together to share information, to trade our insights from the year, and show what we’ve created. It’s a unique event that affords us time to slow down and absorb the inspiration throughout the week.

A good art book will provide inspiration throughout the rest of the year. This year at IX, the Doubletree is allowing us to host a Little Art Book Library. Like the ones often seen in parks and neighborhoods, you can take out an art book at your leisure, and keep it for as long as you wish….the whole week, or maybe until next year. I’ll be bringing a couple books to stock the library, but since I’m flying in and am limited on weight, I’ll need your help.

If you’re heading out to IX next month, take a look at your art book shelf before you go to see if there’s anything you’d like to contribute. The best little libraries have a steady supply, but anyone is welcome to grab an art book, even if you have nothing to share.
