The concept for this show is simple: We provide the sketchbook, you fill it up and turn it in. We will exhibit your sketchbooks and allow the public to look through them to see how each different artist uses their sketchbook and show why they are so essential to an artists’ process.

The public will vote on which 3 sketchbooks they like the best and we will create limited edition prints of a spread from each chosen sketchbook. We will have them for sale at CAL.

Pick up your Sketchbook by TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2nd to make sure you have enough time to complete it by the drop off date. If you would like your sketchbook mailed to you, email Kelsey and let her know. Your returned Sketchbook must be returned to CAL by February 27th, 2021. 

Drop off dates are Feb 26 & 27, 2021.

The exhibit itself will be open from March 2-March 27, 2021. 

Pick up dates upon conclusion of the show are March 30-April 3rd, 2021.

These works function somewhere between the Bauhaus and the IKEA bookshelf, exploring how the marriage of design and function has been commodified and branded as a mass produced aesthetic.
