I have been collecting postcards since 2001. I normally buy a postcard of a place/city I visit and then mail them home to my parents. I also buy art works postcards from museums I visit, simply because I cannot afford to buy reproductions of all the works that I like.
Today, I found a new reason to collect postcards of artworks. I was at a meeting with the Education Director at the Harn Museum - a seasoned art educator. At some point during our animated conversation, she showed me a stack of postcards that she collected and use for teaching art.
What a great idea!!!
So now, I have a better reason for collecting postcards, and YOU can help enrich my collection by sending me a postcard, or two or three :) from a museum that you visit. Let me know if you want my mailing address.
I would love to receive postcards from all over the world!!!

ReplyDeleteBtw, did you ever receive the Dali postcard I sent to you?
I loved it :-) Thanks Ethelee!!!!! You know, I never sent a postcard before... I should learn how.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you finally received it! I was worried that it got lost already. I will send you more expecially from DC when I spend two months there for my nternship. Excited doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about my internship at the Smithsonian!
