a mail art show makes the local newspaper
I know this is where announcements are made for mail art calls - but I also wanted to share this link of a local newspaper with a lovely write-up about a mail art show you might have sent me mail for - the author even adds a homage to Ray Johnson:

Kids and Mail Art
Hi, some of you know me from my blog Visual Influence and The Emergence Project. I do a lot of Mail Art, and I have a six-year old son who has recently become very interested in it. He has done a whole ton of Mail Art and we need other kids to exchange it with. So if anybody has children who would be interested, please send him something! Or even if you are an adult that would like some of his artwork, feel free to send something. Personally, I love children's artwork because it is so fresh and original, kids have none of the preconceived notions about art that some adults have:) Any questions, e-mail me at sarah@theemergenceproject.com

WORLDWIDE CONVENTION OF ARTISTIC RESOURCES

fluxkit project HELP!!!!
the contemporary museum in St. Louis is sponsoring a studio tour on
sunday, July 19th which will include a tour of FLUXUS/ARTFARM - my
studio/farm by the river. They're telling me to expect about 200
visitors, and I thought it would be a great opportunity to put together
a small "FLUXKIT" - envelope - sized, that people can have to keep.
I'm looking for Images, Scores,fluxus bucks,artiststamps, poems,
etc... that I can print out on a 1/4 sheet of paper. sorry for the
short notice, the Idea just hit me.
*****If you're intersted, just send me an image, today if possible****
( sorry again about the rush ) and I'll print them up. make sure that
the work contains your name, signature or stamp so that we know who
it's from,
and I'll print up enough to send one to everyone who contributes, along
with a list of participating artists. If this works out well, maybe I
can start doing this every few months - It could be a fun project, and
a way for us all to connect a little more.
send your submission to : keith9963@...

THE LAST SHOW - on the occasion of the retirement of THE SHOPPING TROLLEY GALLERY - and as an homage to the many artists whose work has been shown on it since 1996, during its many trips to local shops carrying the household shopping
THEME: Free MEDIA: flat artwork on paper postcard size or smaller.
DEADLINE: end November 2008

- l’arte normalmente è invisibile al pubblico
- l’artista lavora e sperimenta in segreto e documenta anche i suoi errori
- segna il territorio come un animale selvatico lasciando trappole e tesori, mappe fasulle e mappe del tesoro
- dissemina ineffabilmente le sue prove d’autore in ogni luogo,
recepibili solo dalle sensibilità in sintonia e ironia
-si incontra con altri artisti segreti in meeting riservati
e discreti per disgelare percorsi, prove d’arte, carte degli errori
- scambia per via postale, manuale, telematica, telefonica, telepatica,
prove e capolavori, messaggi e richieste, suggerimenti, testimonianze…..
- lascia un patrimonio durevole per i meritevoli e i preposti, zavorra e ninnoli, patacche e gemme
