I don't remember how exactly I found this website, but I found this project to be interesting enough to share with everyone. There's an art project that has been going on for a while called the "Sketchbook Project"

The basic concept of it is, you purchase a sketch book from them, sketch in it, send it back to them and it follows a large library along with other participants to various art galleries. At the art gallery people can visit them and browse through all the sketch books. As an artist the sketch book gets barcoded and keeps track of the number of people who browse through it. Unfortunately after the end of the tour of the sketch book project, all sketchbooks will not be returned and will remain permanently housed at The Brooklyn Art Library, but in a more positive note it belongs to the Brooklyn Art Library!

I myself am thinking of participating in the project with my own artwork. But I thought that we have so many talented artists here on TC that maybe one of you might want to participate as well. I thought I would share this with everyone!
