The Kalamazoo Book Arts Center is excited to present an exhibition by the illustrator and author David Small, featuring the original drawings for his graphic novels Stitches and Home After Dark. These powerful novels told in engaging graphic images explore themes of adolescence, emotional neglect, male toxicity, misguided medical treatments, and the dark underbelly of mid-20th century American life.

This exhibition is part of a larger series of events, to celebrate the recent acquisition of the complete archives of David Small and Sarah Stewart by the Western Michigan University Libraries. This includes exhibitions at the Richmond Center for Visual Arts, Waldo Library, the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts, and the Kalamazoo Public Library.

Hours of operation during Art Hop: 5-7 pm
