The Kelsey Museum is thrilled to be featured in the upcoming picture book A2Z: An Ann Arbor Alphabet by local artist Bettina Senga. This illustrated alphabet book, produced in collaboration with the Ann Arbor District Library’s Fifth Avenue Press, celebrates the city with hand-carved linocut block prints, with the Kelsey Museum representing the letter “K.” Highlighting iconic landmarks from the Big House to Kerrytown, the book beautifully captures the spirit of Ann Arbor through the eyes of a dedicated artist.

A2Z will be available for purchase starting on November 2, followed by a book launch event at the A2 Community Bookfest on November 3, where attendees can buy the book, meet the author, and get their new copy signed. The book will also be available to check out at the Ann Arbor District Library.
