Postcards for Peace

Postcards for Peace


This is an art call I came across today, through a friend of mine. I happen to be lucky that this is based in my city, so I'll be able to see the entire finished product. If you'd like more information, please see their website : http://www.postcardsforpeace.homestead.com



The intro to the call says:
"We are calling on artists to send in their 5x7 inch handmade postcards to be displayed as part of our U.S. flag and other related designs. We intend to cover one entire wall, if not two entire galleries with postcards."

If you're interested in the quick and dirty specifics, here they are:

  • peaceful theme.
  • No age/talent limit.
  • Pls indicate whether the artist is a child, teen, or adult on the card.
  • include name, city, state and/or country and title on the back.
  • cards to be 5x7 inches, and under 4oz in weight.
  • packaging should be no thicker than 1/2 inch and one side no longer than 6 inches so it will fit thru a mail slot.
  • no postcards will be returned b/c of volume of submissions expected.
  • ideally the exhibit will travel.


    Send to:
    Dicere Gallery
    5827 Bramble Avenue
    Cincinnati, Ohio 45227
    U.S.A.


    They will begin hanging the show on March 3. Contributions will be added to the show through April 6. Send postcards to arrive by February 15 if possible so they may catalogue submissions.
