If you are in, Giera adds you to the list and the deal is, you make a collage on a playing card for all the other people on the list. It could be four people; it has been as many as thirteen. You make your collages and you mail them to the other people. They, in turn, mail you yours. That is the Monthly International Playing Card Exchange. In <em>Kolaj<\/em> #23, we profile this collage project.<\/p>\n<p><em>This article appeared in Kolaj #23.
