What To Do If You Are Passed a Book

Add your petition and pass the book onto someone who will do the same. Please send the book back when full or if you have no one you can pass it to. The deadline of April 1. 2011, is to avoid the postal increase set to happen mid April. Send it back even if you miss the deadline. By putting the Petition Box Project address as the return address also, the additional postage will be covered on this end.

Aftermath

 It was thrilling to come back to the installation, after such a fabulous party and see that there were a number of petitions on the wall. What was noticeable was that some 'petitions' were more like responses to ones already posted. The one to the left is two different posts.

Drawings popped up and notes to people that would be going through after the post-er.

I am still awed by how quickly people come to the heart of the matter and without possibly knowing it, post words of wisdom, comfort, advice for each of us to ponder. There is something important and noteworthy to me, that in this day of computer generated content, emails and text, that the human mark is still powerfully provocative and important. Handwriting is unique to the writer and I like being reminded of it even it is at times illegible.
