Book Gathering

​BOOK—SPACE places the table at the heart of its events, referencing the architecture of traditional reading rooms.

​The horizontal surface—of the library, studio, office, or dining room—holds the quiet proximities of books, notes, and objects, allowing for chance encounters and layered ways of thinking.

​Book Gathering invites participants into an intimate act of shared generosity. Guided by touch, intuition, and chance, guests are invited to choose a book and, in doing so, form unseen connections between words, materials, and readers.

​Rooted in the spirit of temporary libraries and ritual exchanges, Book Gathering draws focus to the materiality of books, the gestures of giving and the slow unfolding of shared curiosity.
