Once Upon A Time…
The Bookmark project consisted of 29 artists, each to design a bookmark inspired by their favorite children’s story/nursery rhyme. The original artwork was exhibited and printed bookmarks were available for a $3 donation to First Book, a non-profit children’s literacy program. The donation of $3 covers the cost of one book, so buying a bookmark meant buying a book!
