We here at Mail a smile love animals and think it’s time to dedicate a mail art call to them. We believe it’s important to take care of our environment including all living creatures. Since so many are already extinct, we’d like to raise awareness of critically endangered animals to prevent further extinction.
This challenge lasts from February 1st – December 31st, 2017.
Create a postcard/letter or anything you wish to mail.
No entry fee, no returns, no size limit
Multiple entries welcome:)
Send your art work to this address:
Mail a smile Budapest Pf.:20 1554 – Hungary
The art-works will be displayed in an exhibition in 2018 in Budapest.
Please indicate the name of the animal and optionally your name, country, social media contact on the back of the postcard
Send us a photo of your work so we can add it to our gallery and Facebook. (info [at] mailasmile [dot] org) or we can take a photo once your art work is received. Be sure to use hashtag #2017MailASmile on instagram and tumblr.
They have a list of endangered animals to pick from.
