10am - 5pm

Create your own mail art in homage to or interpretation of masters of the genre. Learn about the influence of surrealism, fluxus, and other art movements on mail art. Then, push the mail art envelope by learning about the intricacies of artists’ stamps, faux postage, envelope construction, and what defines a piece of mail as art. You’ll create surprising, inspiring structures that challenge notions of what can be sent through the mail. Students will interact via the U.S. Postal Service.
