Q: Do the coasters still need to be functional for drinks?
A: No. The intention is for them to be small works of art that can be displayed rather than used. However, if you want to make them as functional drink coasters, that’s fine too.
Q: I’m a writer, can I make a coaster of my poem?
A: Of course!
Q: What medium does it need to be?
A: Anything!
Q: Can I make a Triptych for my 3 coasters?
A: Yes you can. We encourage works to be able to stand on their own as a finished/purchased piece, but it’s not a hard and fast rule.
Q: Is photography allowed?
A: Yes, as long as it’s your original work.
I’ve read through the rules and I’m in!
