The Jaffe Center for Book Arts is pleased to announce that applications for JCBA’s Helen M. Salzberg Artist in Residence Program for the 2023 calendar year are now being accepted. This year's residency, like last year's, is designed to offer flexibility in residency: you could be our next Salzberg Resident without leaving your home studio (wherever it may be).

Artists working in the book arts (and other media, too, as long as the creative project can be thought of as book arts related) are encouraged to apply. Poet and artist Helen M. Salzberg established the Salzberg Residency in 2011 to encourage artists from all over the world to come to JCBA to be inspired and to inspire. For 2023, the Salzberg Resident is not required to physically come to JCBA, but we do expect the inspiration aspects to continue.

A core concept at FAU Libraries' Jaffe Center for Book Arts is that there is more than one way to define "book." There is also more than one way to tell a story. What if we told a story without words? Could we tell a story solely through a sequence of images?
