If you’re a regular reader of this blog (and I hope that you are!), then you’ve probably heard about the Collage Scrap Exchange I’m hosting with Papirmass, a mail art subscription service. In short: it’s a super fun art contest where you can make cool collage art and win awesome prizes!

This is geared towards those working in collage, but anyone is welcome to participate (as long as they are willing to follow the guidelines!)

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
  • Get your work published in an issue of Papirmass!

Project theme: New Landscapes

Deadlines:

  • Sign up until November 15, 2014
  • Artwork must be received by February 15, 2015

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

EDIT:

Sign ups are now CLOSED! If you missed out on signing up, don’t worry. The Collage Scrap Exchange will be back!

    I’m a high school art teacher who wishes that there were more time to my own art. I’m hoping that this gives me a badly needed jump on it!
