The 700s are super broad and include not only the fine and graphic arts, but landscaping, architecture, music and SPORTS. Not that there’s anything wrong with sports, they just aren’t directly related to the work we do in the Sabatini Gallery. So, I won’t be reporting on three-legged-racing, pancake flipping, hotdog eating, etc. Also, I made Melvil/Melville Dewey turn blue from all that counting and decimal decision-making.

PS—Just for fun (because I’m a nerd and love stuff like this and therefore assume everyone else loves browsing this stuff, too), check out how extensive the 700s really are. Crazy.
