Item description
Two pages of a small sketchbook. The page on the left has a white piece of paper with black text that reads “it’s not like the flu. CDC estimates of U.S. annual deaths from flu 2010 through 2020: “best” year = 12,000 worst year = 52,000 + there’s no “long flu”. COVID-19 U.S. deaths: 2020 = about 325,000 2021 = about 460,000 2022 = about 202,000 so far, with the colder, worst months ahead”. The paper is taped on with strips of golden tape and decorated with holographic star stickers in blue, yellow, and red. The page on the right has pieces of colorful construction paper overlapping each other, decorated with holographic star stickers in yellow, white, red, and blue; as well as thin strips of gold tape throughout the page.

Images show the front/title, two intro pages, two sample interior pages, and the final page of a 32-page mini-sketchbook (3-1/2"x5") created for the Time Capsule Project at the Brooklyn Art Library/Sketchbook Project (recently relocated to St. Petersburg, FL). Description: "After a wild 2.5 years, we wanted to find a way for our community to preserve something and tell a story about 2022, so we're filling a time capsule and burying it for 50 years." One thousand artists have submitted sketchbooks. An exhibit is expected soon, followed by a ceremony in which the time capsule will be buried on site.
