to all ILSSA members of all time,
We are writing in one last final attempt to garner more tools from
y'all!
We're here at Saint Mary's College unpacking boxes. We're *very*
excited about what we've seen, but are disappointed to find that
despite having over 150 members, we have only received 15 tools.
Please know that we really want to include ALL of you in the show --
don't worry if you haven't renewed, or your dues have lapsed, or
whatever. (We're in the midst of restructuring toward dues-free
membership, anyway: more on that very soon.) To sum up: if you once
joined ILSSA, you're part of ILSSA.
Can you send a tool today, or tomorrow?
We'll need to receive it no later than this Friday January 13th to
get it in the show.
We will return the tool back to you (at no cost to you) after the
exhibition closes.
Please be sure to include your return address, and if you have a
moment, a brief statement about how you use the tool.
And in answer to Anne's question below: the tool doesn't need to be
something you've used in the past year as long as it is something
indicative of your impractical labor.
Please send to:
Krista Hoefle, Gallery Director
Moreau Art Galleries
Saint Mary's College
Notre Dame, IN 46556
ATTN: ILSSA Exhibition
Also: forgot to send your remnants? SEND THEM TODAY!!! If we get
them before Friday, we'll do our very best to get them in there.
It doesn't matter if you have 3 envelopes or 300. Please send!!
One last thing: please send us an email once you've sent your
package so we can be sure to look out for it.
best & warmest,
your ILSSA co-operators

Dearest ILSSA Members,
Our first ILSSA exhibition quickly approaches! The show is
scheduled to open at the Hammes Gallery at Saint Mary's College on
January 27, 2012 and will run through the 24th of February. In
order to make this show an absolute success, we need your help!
Many of you have been saving remnants. Thank you, thank you!
Please keep up the saving and be ready to send your collections
ASAP at the beginning of 2012. The gallery is expecting delivery
from all of us between January 3rd and 6th.
We would also like to include one additional item from each
Impractical Laborer, even those of you who are not contributing
remnants:
1) A tool with which you impractically labor, with a short
statement about the manner in which you use the tool.
Please mail said tool to the gallery, to arrive between January
3rd and 6th at the following address:
Krista Hoefle, Gallery Director
Moreau Art Galleries
Saint Mary's College
Notre Dame, IN 46556
ATTN: ILSSA Exhibition
You are welcome to e-mail your statement to your Co-Operators, and/
or send a hard copy along with your tool.
Your tool will be mailed back to you upon closing of the
exhibition at the end of February. Please indicate your preferred
return address with your submission.
As always, please feel free to e-mail us with any questions or
concerns. We hope you'll all be able to participate in this
inaugural exhibition, the first of it's kind for ILSSA!
In cahoots,
Your Co-Operators
