For all lovers of books and book art, some great news for all of us book lovers on the East Coast!  Maddy Rosenberg, founder and director of Central Booking which opened in the DUMBO area of Brooklyn has found new digs!  And, they are in the Lower Eastside here in New York City!  They aren't that far from Dieu Donne Paper either so you can catch a great exhibit on paper and the book arts in the same area!  Her new space will be at 21 Ludlow Street, not that far from Canal Street and Broome Street!  There is also the Lower Eastside Printshop nearby, the DIA Center on West Broadway with Walter DeMaria's "Broken Kilometer" on exhibit as well as the June Kelley Gallery and O.K. Harris Gallery.  There are great boutiques and galleries to check out throughout the area.  This writer is very excited and can't wait until Central Booking has its official opening.  Here is the email announcement about Central Booking from Maddy Rosenberg!

"Thank you for your patience during these many months of waiting for CENTRAL BOOKING to re-open in its own space again. But the wait was worth it, we are moving into our lovely 2700 square foot new home in the Lower Eastside at 19-21 Ludlow Street very soon!

Since it is so late in the season, we will delay opening festivities until September, along with the premiere of Gallery II (Art & Science) with the exhibition "Un/Natural Occurrences." Details will follow. But do come visit us when we re-open with the work of the more than 160 artists represented by CENTRAL BOOKING who work with the book.

Please stay tuned for actual opening information! We just wanted all of you to share in our good news."

For more information about Central Booking "like" them on Facebook and check out the website for up-to-date news and sign-up for their email! 

Also nearby is Mindy Bellof's great studio and press called Intima Press.  Located nearby at Union Square, Mindy provides some wonderful workshops on artists books, letterpress, and more!  Her space is intimate and cozy and provides some alternative workshops in the book arts that may entice you.  Check out her schedule and activities at www.intimapress.com.

The Lower Eastside Printshop also offers workshops and classes.  Check out their schedule at www.printshop.org.  They also offer some fun classes and residency programs in letterpress and the book arts. 

Enjoy the lovely weather, and start taking some classes and congratulations to Central Booking!  We can't wait!
