Donating Art – The Postcard Art Project – Firehouse Gallery – Phoenix, AZ

The Postcard Art Project is a fundraiser and mail art show opening August 8th through September 7th at The Firehouse Gallery – Phoenix, Arizona.

The follow gallery is a glimpse at some of the handmade postcards of my original artwork that has been “snail mailed” to the show. I sincerely hope it arrives in time!

This is a Worldwide call for postcard art.

All works will be displayed and  proceeds of the postcard sales will be donated to the Firehouse Gallery so if you’re in the area show your support and grab yourself some original Austin Art!

Want me to send you a post card? 😀

This work is available directly from me while vending local events. I do NOT price these prints – FREE WILL Donations are currently being accepted. They fund studio equipment that will help Happy Hollow Glass further reduce waste glass. I am striving to create less NEW products with NEW materials. I have the skills to make use of glass already in existence given the proper tools. Thank you in advance for your generous support and effort to “STOMP the Plastic Habit” with Austin’s ZERO WASTE Hot Glass Studio!

 The Zero Waste Solution: Untrashing the Planet One Community at a Time 

by Paul Connett

The community has to say to industry “if we can’t reuse it, recycle it or compost it, you shouldn’t be making it.” In other words waste is a design problem, and that is Step Nine: We need better design of both products and packaging if we are going to rid ourselves of the wretched “throwaway ethic” which has dominated both manufacture and our daily lives since WW II. We need to turn off the tap on disposable objects.

I couldn’t have said it better myself! If I have ever confused anybody by saying “Do NOT Recycle” This is a fantastic resource that will help to clarify what I mean by that!
