Decatur Postcards Project 2015 Here’s how it works: We encourage a range of creative media – not limited to photography. A jury of local artists and community leaders will select up to ten images of Decatur for a set of classic tourist-style postcards. You may be asked to bring in your original work. Each selected artist receives a $150 honorarium and a credit line on the reverse side of his/her printed card, along with the satisfaction of having printed artwork that will travel the world. The 2015 postcards will be available during the Decatur Arts Festival. All postcard sale proceeds benefit programs of the Decatur Arts Alliance. Guidelines and how to submit your artwork:
