Scavenger hunts! Yay! We love those! The Art House Co-op (run by 2 SCAD students) still has their Scavenger Project in the works, and the deadline to participate is upon us. But the first thing you need to know is what a Scavenger Project is. Well, I’m not totally sure. It appears to be something like a very interactive/experimental/experiential version of the Scholastic Book Club:
We’re making a book and we need your help! We’re going to send you a list of 24 things which will end up being the 24 chapters of the book. Each chapter is a reference to a moment, scenario, or item and we need your help visually representing each item. Every participant who sends back their images will be guaranteed at least one published photo in the book!
What? That sounds adorable! So far, 328 people are participating and they have room remaining for twice that. But you must apply by October 15. And you have until November 15 to mail the completed scavenger hunt back for inclusion in the book. This is a great gift idea for someone recently laid off from his/her job in print media, finance, or car manufacturing. (Idle hands, etc, you know.)
The book will be for sale at the project’s show on January 23 (that’s 2009, y’all), which will be held in conjunction with Collecting Objects: The Timeline Project (deadline to sign up: Nov. 1).
Here’s the Co-op’s full list of projects in case you want to hop on to another one later on down the road.
To see the highlights reel of Art House’s last two years in the mail-order art project business, their gallery in Castleberry Hill will be open all day this Saturday to show off “the 100 greatest things we ever received.” I hope one of the things is a Ukrainian bride!
