A collection rooted in the classroom—antique schoolbooks, an ornate brass inkwell, a turn-of-the-century group portrait, ten antique skeleton keys, a commemorative school bell honoring 44 years of service, and an original 1920s University of Kentucky panoramic photograph.
Six pieces carrying traces of the people who read from them, wrote with them, worked beside them, and gathered for the photograph.
Collected slowly. Chosen with care.
