Florida's original alluring characteristics consisted of seaside escapes, warm weather, and the promise of a tropical lifestyle.
These treasures from the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book and the Broward County Historical Archives support the endless possibilities that Florida offered as a setting, whether it be as the backdrop for the plot of a suspense thriller, or as the perfect place for a waterfront meal at sunset.
This exhibition was curated by the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book.
Dates: June 6-August 26, 2022
Located on the second floor gallery space of Broward County Main Library.
