Frequently asked q's

What kind of sketchbook are you sending?

We're sending out Moleskine Kraft-bound Cahier journals. The sketchbook measures 3 and a half by 5 and a half inches. It contains 64 pages. The last 8 pages are perforated and can be torn out of the sketchbook.

Is there a limit to what I can do to the sketchbook?

Nope! The only requirement is that the sketchbook must be the same size (3.5x5.5 inches) when it is closed. Feel free to cut into pages, glue crap to them, add to the pages and make fold outs, etc. Just make sure that when the book is closed, it measures 3.5x5.5.

Do I have to fill all 64 pages?

It would be sweet if you did, but you definately aren't required to. If you have excess pages, you might want to tear out the blank pages to help the flow when the viewer flips through it.

Can I get my sketchbook back?

You can! When you send your completed sketchbook back to us, just include a self-addressed stamped package/envelope (make sure your sketchbook can fit in it!). After the show we will send your sketchbook back. Please keep in mind though that we can not guarantee a time frame in which we will be able to send it back to you, as we like to keep the sketchbooks on display in the gallery after the show ends for people who missed the show to see.

When are the sketchbooks due by?

The sketchbooks have to be postmarked to us by August 1st. Just stick it in an envelope, slap some postage on it, and stick that sucker in the mailbox heading to the address found in the box below.

Can you elaborate on the theme of "how to change the world"?

Take the theme however you wish. There is no right or wrong. If the world needed saving, how would you save it? What would save it?

I suck at drawing, should I still participate?

Uh, duh. Just because its a sketchbook doesn't mean it has to contain "sketches". It's there to hold your thoughts. Write in it. Glue things down and collage in it. Paint in it. Draw in it. Spray some perfume in it (preferably a nice smelling one.)

Do you have to be in the United States to participate? [UPDATED]

We just opened up the project to international participants! Please use the tab on the top right to switch to the "international application"! If you run into any trouble or get any errors signing up, please let Shaneknow and he will gladly help!

What happens when all the spots are filled up?

When the max of 500 people is hit, we will disable the signup form. Do not worry if you're cutting it close, we WILL NOT allow people to sign up once the limit has been hit.
