Stephen Savage and Cecilia Ruiz
Event Location
1133 Broadway

The MFA Illustration as Visual Essay Program at the School of Visual Arts, in partnership with Rizzoli Bookstore and the Sendak Fellowship Foundation, is pleased to announce a new series of public conversations dedicated to the art and craft of the picture book.

The first event will take place on 12/09 at 6 PM, featuring Stephen Savage as host and Cecelia Ruiz as the guest artist in conversation.

Hosted at Rizzoli, the series brings together fellows, artists, illustrators, writers, and editors to discuss the creative and collaborative processes behind illustrated storytelling.

Speakers will examine the history and evolving traditions of the picture book, exploring how images and words work together to create stories that resonate across generations. Though often associated with childhood, picture books remain powerful literary, visual, and cultural forms for readers of all ages, bridging memory, imagination, and shared experience.

At a time when many cultural institutions face defunding and financial strain, iconic bookstores like Rizzoli help bridge the gap by providing vital spaces for dialogue, learning, and cultural exchange
