There are three interesting exhibitions in the SF Bay Area this month. Well, more than that, but I have work in three.
In San Francisco, there's Musubu: Book Art: Tokyo-California at The American Bookbinder's Museum, April 7 - May 19, 2018. Reception: April 7, 2018, 5-8pm. 355 Clementina Street, San Francisco, CA. Curated by Jody Alexander and Hisako Nakazawa. Musubu means "to tie, to connect, or to be bound by friendship."
