Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick is the most persistently pictured of all American novels, with timeless themes that continue to inspire creatives of all types.


Draw Me Ishmael: The Book Arts of Moby Dick, now on view at the Peabody Essex Museum, is the first exhibition focused on the book arts of the hundreds of editions and adaptations published since 1851. vDrawn almost entirely from Peabody Essex Museum’s Phillips Library collection, Draw Me Ishmael explores decades of approaches to interpreting the novel visually, in book form. Dan Lipcan, curator of the exhibition, will provide an overview of the show and bring examples for the audience to examine!


The 46th Boston International Antiquarian Book Fair (BIABF) is a three-day event featuring 100+ top international dealers offering the most sought-after collections of fine and rare books, maps, illustrations, and ephemera on the global market.
