Book News Annotation:

Smith (Living Out Loud: Activities to Fuel a Creative Life, 2003) introduces street art as a way to foster connections with the natural world, community, and one's inner activist. She presents creative exercises on exploring what you want to say and conveying messages via such media as stencils, knitted tags, and randomly-placed postcards. The spiral-bound toolkit includes templates, a glossary, bibliography, and websites. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
