This is so cool, I love it. As soon as I saw it I was like I WANT TO MAKE MY OWN EMOTIONS MONSTER!

I will be taking part :)

What an amazing and creative (therapeutic!) project. I am looking forward to seeing your community collection and all your work and insights. And also creating my monster through your exercise prompts! Your workshops around it sound amazing, what a positive gift to the community. 👏🏼👏🏼 So creative!

Please feel free to still make and send one in! I’ll technically be adding monsters into the encyclopedia up until June 23rd :)

Ohhhh I should have read this sooner too. I am on holiday, camping, so not able to draw or send anything. Ah well, would have been great to participate. Good luck with all the monsters!!!

This was an awesome exercise, thank you! I've sent in my monster and can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with! Will you make distributable copies of the end product, either as a digital or physical media?

Hi Grace! Thank you so much for your monster. Since this is a community activity taking place in a library, I’m not going to create any copies of the book. However, I will make sure to share plenty of photos from the final exhibition! If you’d like a photo of your work inside the encyclopedia please remind me when June comes around and I’ll be happy to!

Hey there I just read through this and I’d love to contribute, can our monsters be created digitally?

INCREDIBLE! Wish I could be there in Pittsburgh on Saturday! I’ll let my friends who live there know. Definitely want to try and make my own monster. What a cool residency!
