Wednesday is book donation deadline

Wednesday is the deadline to make a financial donation in support of the upcoming coffee table book “American Modern: Architecture, Community, Columbus, Indiana” expected to be published by summer by The Monacelli Press.

It is considered one of the more prestigious architecture and fine arts-related publishers in the world.

Book author is Columbus native and author Matt Shaw, former executive director of The Architect’s Newspaper, where the online publication won an International Committee of Architectural Critics honorable mention.

He has written some 40,000 words on the project. Shaw’s work has appeared in a broad range of publications, including The New York Times.

Donors who contribute $1,000 to this project will receive a photo print of their choosing from available images, a copy of the book – when published – and donor names will be added to the book. Donations can be made at landmarkcolumbusfoundation.org/american-modern.
