Looking for a clever and free Woolf-related graphic for your office door? Look no further than the Web page for the National Arts Education Public Awareness Campaign.
The campaign of six print ads, featuring artists ranging from writer Woolf to singer Celia Cruz, uses clever puns on the artists’ names to encourage arts education. The Woolf ad is headlined, “Why Some People Think Virginia Woolf is the State’s Official Animal.”
Anne Fernald, of Fordham University, newly announced site of the 2009 Annual International Conference on Virginia Woolf, sent the link to the Virginia Woolf Listserv this morning. Along with the link, she sent the news that she spotted the ad in two issues of Newsweek.
Madelyn Dentoff of Miami University of Ohio, site of this year’s conference, chimed in minutes later to report that she was surprised to see the ad in Sports Illustrated.
Report your sightings of the ad in the comments section on this post. Or send them to bloggingwoolf@yahoo.com.
