The John Berkey Observed show was the subject of a City Pages story by Rod Smith that was released today.

The show runs until December 18. Hours are Thursdays and Fridays from 5 to 8 pm, Saturdays from 1 to 6 pm, Sundays from 1 to 4 pm, and by appointment.

John Berkey’s show opened Friday night to a nice crowd of about 300, and John was there in person to meet everyone. The show will be open Thursdays to Sundays until December 18.

Visitors saw about 100 paperback books that John has illustrated, out of the over 200 books that he did over his 50-year career.
