Description

An extraordinary collection of rare and unique treasures is housed in The Wittliff Collections, a distinguished archival repository that collects and preserves the works of writers, photographers, musicians, filmmakers, and other artists. Included in the Collections are Sandra Cisneros and Cormac McCarthy, Manuel Álvarez Bravo and Graciela Iturbide, Willie Nelson and Jerry Jeff Walker, and the Lonesome Dove Production Archive.

 

The new Wittliff Book+ Club will take advantage of this local treasure trove by reading and discussing books each month and exploring related archived materials.
