Dia de la Muertos (Day of the Dead) mail art call
I'm hosting a Day of the Dead mail art call to help celebrate my 53rd birthday this year. It's the first mail art call I've hosted in a while so I'm really looking forward to it. Ever since I was a small child, Halloween and then, when I learned about it, Dia de los Muertos, have been my favorite holidays. They deal life and death, fear and bravado, identity and fantasy - all at once.
Deadline: October 15, 2004
Send any 2D or 3D artwork which can be sent through the mail to: Carla Cryptic, Dia de los Muertos, PO Box 1274, Berkeley CA 94701, USA.
No jury, no returns, documentation to all!

The Call is over and was very successful - please come see the results at the Dia de los Muertos Mail Art Gallery - http://webdisk.berkeley.edu/~carlajp/dod/ and be sure to post your comments here or send me email.
I had to delete a bunch of comments from a single poster who was spamming my blog with links to things she or her friends are selling. If you want to put links to your work in my blog, I am thrilled, but please don't add a sales pitch, especially one that's longer than 2 paragraphs. It's only simple etiquette. Now I see why so many people set up screened comments. A few people taking advantage of the open blogs makes it harder for all of us. Sigh. Anyway, that's why I erased those comments.
