Free Arts Council travel wallet

berec1

If you use an Oyster card or other credit card sized travel card then you might find this handy, but to be fair it's technically a mini work of art so anyone might like to try and get one!

The Arts Council have commissioned ten artists to produce travel wallets as part of its 60th anniversary, and they will be giving them out in train stations, bus stations and shopping centres across the country. If you really want one though, they are giving away 5,000 online - click on the link below and you'll see the link to request a wallet at the bottom of the webpage.

You can see some of the wallet designs online, including

Glad you're all finding ones you like the look of - never thought I'd hear myself say that I wanted a piece of Tracey Emin's work but I would quite like her cat wallet!

Fingers crossed we were in the first 5,000...

Thank you. They didn't send me a plastic wallet with my Oyster card and it's a right pain not having one. I don't mind which one I get so long as I get one.

You'll have to sing for it.

So many colours ... oh well, order lots.

Maybe 'There is a green hill far away' would be nice for starters ....

Maybe they try to match the wallets to the addresses.
