| Postcards from members of the San Francisco Correspondence Co-op Book Arts & Special Collections Center, SFPL |
Who says the the Post Office is dead? Certainly not members of the San Francisco Correspondence Co-op! This crafty group of letter writers, postcard makers, rubber stamp artists, and artist stamp designers are using their talents (and so can you) to resurrect the beauty and utility of snail mail. Plus, we think our postal workers are secretly amused by all the colorful mail they get to deliver.
Join the fun at the next meeting of the SFCC on Sunday, November 18, 3:00-5:00pm, at the Main Library, Latino-Hispanic Community Meeting Room, Lower Level. Everyone is invited. Sponsored by the Book Arts and Special Collections Center.
