Summary

The Here Be Monsters Art Exchange is back!

It’s a really simple and wonderful thing where you, gentle listener, can mail a piece of art to a stranger and get a piece of art in return. It’s open to artists of all experience levels from around the world.

The deadline to sign up is November 10th, 2022. Sign up and more info here: https://www.hbmpodcast.com/art

The art exchange is made possible this year by HBM listener Devon Sherman, who’s offered her time and expertise to help with communication between artists. Thank you Devon. Devon is a past participant in the art exchange, and has an ongoing project where she illustrates Robert Burton’s The Anatomy of Melancholy. Another listener, known as “Endless_Want”, also helped out by making the Art Exchange’s promotional video, which you can see on the sign-up page and on our Instagram and Twitter.

Music: The Black Spot, Robbie Quine—Glitter Rock Werewolf
