Elder Street Gallery calls for entries for a postcard art show to be
held during the month of October, 2009. All work will be exhibited. No
jury and no returns.
Create the postcard on an existing 4"x6" post card or a 5” X 9” post
card or start from scratch on a blank 4" x 6" or 5” X 9” piece of
card stock. The art does not have to be done on an "official" post
card, just something of similar weight and size. Please include on the
back of your postcard - Your name, full mailing address, title of
artwork, medium and email address, (website if you have one) .The
artwork on the postcard can be either horizontal or vertical. All
artwork can be mailed as a postcard or sent inside an envelope.
Materials will vary, depending on the technique you choose. You may
create the art with any technique, and all media are acceptable,
including collage, markers, crayons, pen and ink, colored pencils,
rubber stamps, tempera, acrylic, watercolor and printmaking. The only
consideration is that the artwork cannot have a raised surface. Please
no nudity, racist, or pornographic art.
All work will be on display at Elder Street Gallery, in October. A
reception will be held on Saturday, October 16, 5:00 to 10:00. This
