Postcards from the Future!
Last month, during a workshop in Bulgaria, I did an activity called "Postcards from the Future!"
It allowed workshop participants to synthesize some of the work we did earlier in the week and to share a future goal related to the workshop content with a partner.
Basically, each participant chatted about their goals, and then had a partner create a "Postcard from the Future!" that would give them a nudge, or ask about progress, and offer help with what they would be working on in a month or so.
(We gathered up all the postcards and will be sending them out to each participant at the end of this month.)

It was such a fun activity that I thought, "Why not do this for my ExhibItricks blog?"
So, if you send me a postcard with a short message (and your return address) about a project you are working on, or a sticky museum/exhibit problem you are trying to solve, I promise to send you back a cool "Postcard from the Future!" with some friendly encouragement and/or my suggestions.
And who doesn't like receiving a postcard in the mail?
You can send your postcard to:
