Performances & Exhibitions
The Sketch Book Project
The Sketchbook Project is the world’s largest collection of artist sketchbooks. Since its inception in 2006, it has been a beloved part of the art world. Contributions range from love letters and diary entries to graphic novels and intricately detailed masterpieces, all inside the pages of five-by-seven-inch, paper-bound books. The non-profit hosting the project and collection closed in 2022 and the sketchbooks were offered to other museums and institutions to preserve the collection. In 2023, much of the collection, numbering 28,000 books created by thousands of artists representing approximately 100 countries, was gifted to the Taube Museum of Art.
The Walter Piehl Gallery is located in the Northwest Arts Center on the lower level of the Gordon B. Olson Library, with its own entrance on the south side of the library. It is open TWThF, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday 1-5 p.m. and by special arrangement. It is closed holidays.
This exhibition is sponsored by the Taube Museum of Art, and by the North Dakota Art Gallery Association (NDAGA), a statewide service organization for non-profit museums & galleries, and supported in part by a grant from the North Dakota Council on the Arts, which receives funding from the state legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts.
