Calling All Collage Artists: Sign Up for the Collage Scrap Exchange!

papirmass-bpb-cse-announcementDo you make col­lage art? Do you have an abun­dance of paper scraps? If so, then you need to par­tic­i­pate in the Col­lage Scrap Exchange! It’s a super fun art con­test that I’m host­ing with Papir­mass, a mail art sub­scrip­tion ser­vice (be sure to check it out, too!).

The premise is sim­ple: bun­dle up some of your favorite scraps and send them to your part­ner — anoth­er col­lage artist. They’ll ship their scraps to you, and the two of you will have a whole new set of mate­ri­als to exper­i­ment and play with! Then, make art­work that fus­es both of your unique pieces.

How it works: 

  1. Sign up to par­tic­i­pate in the Col­lage Scrap Exchange (CSE) with the form below.
  2. After Novem­ber 15, we’ll match up col­lage partners.
  3. You’ll pack­age your scraps and mail ’em via snail mail to your partner.
  4. Once you receive your col­lage part­ner’s pack­age, make a col­lage using both of your scraps! Theme: New Landscapes
  5. Turn in your fin­ished art­work before the Feb­ru­ary 15, 2015 deadline.

Win a prize package worth over $250!

  • $125 cash prize
  • 2 free sub­scrip­tions for Papir­mass

Deadlines:

  • Sign up until Novem­ber 15, 2014

All are wel­come to par­tic­i­pate, so please pass this along to a friend! I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
