PLEASE HELP THEM MAKE THEIR DREAM COME TRUE!

A belgian internaut set up “1MillionFans” after thinking of ideas to promote his brother’s artwork via Facebook. His bet: getting the galleries’ attention in Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris, Moscow and Tokyo, by reaching 1 million followers in less than 3 months! The project is brand new but why not… I think that using social medias is a cool way to promote unknown artists :)

Read on Earth is a place of free expression. The goal is to provoke curiosity (to encourage people to visit libraries and bookstores in hopes of discovering one of these bookmarks), to bring a new and exciting aspect to book reading in a world that is becoming increasingly digital, and to interact with other people.


Want to participate ?

1. Choose a book that is available to the public (library book, book in store, etc).
2. Select/Create your bookmark (bookmarks usually offer some comic relief on the title in which they're placed).

3. Submit a photo of your bookmark to Read on Earth.

4. Leave your bookmark in the book.
