The People's Library | Exhibition Opening

Tethered in everyday acts of writing and reading, The People’s Library is an ambitious act of public telling. 

Part performance library, part installation of radical, social publishing, The People’s Library unfolds a once-in-a-generation narrative of reading, writing and fugitive study from across lutruwita/ Tasmania.  Gathering together a unique library of 113 books, written by 170 Tasmanian authors, and informed by the hugely influential colour system, Werner’s Nomenclature of Colours, this newly conceived iteration for Design Tasmania's Price Hall by A Published Event, Negative Press and designer Cherie Schweitzer, promises a dynamic, interactive and accessible experience in the heart of Launceston, in harmony with Design Tasmania founder Gary Cleveland's vision for Design Tasmania as a 'living room for the city'.

Included designer talk with: Margaret Woodward, Justy Phillips, Trent Walter + Cherie Schweitzer

Exhibition opening:
Sunday, 4th June: 2pm - 4pm
