My Day Out : I (Gandha Key) invite you all to send me on a trip to somewhere in London, UK.

It must be within the tube map area of London. See the link below for a link to the tube map

It can be a place you remember, or a place you have read about in a book, heard in a song or seen in a film.

I will visit the place by underground and spend one hour there taking photos. I will create a bookwork from these photos and also a series of postcards. You will receive a postcard from me when the project is complete.

Click here for a tube map that you can download

Send your place name to me, Gandha Key, gandha@hotmail.co.uk and tell me why you chose this particular place.

Thanks! I look forward to my day trips!

Deadline: No deadline this project continues to 2015

Hi my name is Zaz (or Zazzy) and I've recently started a mailart page on Facebook called The Great Mailart Project.
I have only posted one call so far on a less used website. I've only gotten 2 pieces of art in the past month since I have posted. I'd appreciate it greatly if you would post the following on your blog.

Greetings ladies and gentlemen!
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
No, it's The Great Mailart Project.
The Great Mailart Project is a page I created on Facebook so I could share my new found love of mailart with the world.
Right now the walls are almost naked, with only a few posts to spread to cover it's shame.
Could you be the one to rescue it?
If you choose to take up my cause send your artwork to:

The Great Mailart Project
PO Box 852
Dowagiac, MI
49047
USA

no deadline mentioned but posted april 2013

I will post anything that isn't offensive (I don't consider swearing to be offensive unless it's a slurr).
There will be a contest at the end of each month where the winner (or the one I think is the best in case of a tie) will be the profile picture for the next month, and the runner up will be the background picture.
You can write a brief message that you want to be displayed along with your art if you so choose, but I won't share any of your information unless you give permission.
Because of the cost I can't return every piece, but if you really want it back send a note along with it and I will work things out.
Thank you, and don't forget to like The Great Mailart Project on Facebook, it's a fairly new page and every like it gets helps spread the mailart message.
There isn't any specific subject matter, but you might want to remember that you're kind of a hero, saving us from a blank wall.

Papergirl Novi Sad is planned to take place in September 2013 in Novi Sad, Serbia, as an integral part of the Street Artist Festival:

http://www.ulicnisviraci.com/en/

Papergirl is, in essence, a mail-art and delivery systems art project that is participatory, analogue, non-commercial, and impulsive.

Submitted artwork is distributed like a newspaper - the artwork is rolled up into bundles of 3 pieces or more and distributed to random people in the street from bicycles, paperboy style. The idea is to surprise people with an unexpected present and brighten up their day with art.

Everyone can participate and anything can be submitted: originals, copies, prints, photos, drawings, paintings, collages, mixed media, zines, writings, textiles, stickers, etc. Format, style and technique are free.

We want anything you make and we encourage you to send multiples of your work, so it can be put into many art rolls.

The only requirement is that the art be flexible enough to be rolled up! Each roll will contain several different works, meaning that each one holds a unique combination of works.

All received artwork will be shown on this blog, and exhibited at a Festival. After that it will be distributed to the festival audience.

Deadline for submissions: 01.08. 2013

Mail your works to: Kulturanova (Papergirl NS), Njegoševa 3, 21 000 Novi Sad, Serbia
