Review:

The San Francisco Center for the Book is a nonprofit book center that was opened to the public in 1996, striving to preserve and protect the art of the book and spread appreciation for the bookmaking arts to the San Francisco population. The center is open to the public for free Mondays through Sundays during the morning and afternoon hours, located in the city's DoReMi Arts District. Visitors can explore the center's public gallery exhibitions for free daily, which showcase completed and in-progress book bindings, letterpress works, and book art. Events at the center include gallery openings, lectures, open houses, and community mixers. More than 400 annual workshops are also offered by the center for bookbinders and book artists of all skill levels.
