The Sketchbook Project

The Sketchbook Project is back. For its fourth incarnation, the Atlanta-based Art House Co-op is building a publicly accessible library of sketchbooks. Participants are asked to donate their finished sketchbooks to the project, which will be exhibited in galleries around the country beginning in December. Anyone can participate. Just sign up to receive a bar-coded Moleskine, fill it with art, mail it back, and you’re guaranteed a place in the collection. Each participant will be randomly assigned one of about 30 themes for his or her sketchbook. The ultimate goal of the project is to create a permanent collection that will be browsable by theme, media, or location. The organizers anticipate opening the permanent sketchbook library location next year. Ready to sketch your way to immortality? Sign up by October 1 to participate.
