Mail Art (also known as postal art and correspondence art) is an international movement centered on sending small scale artwork through the postal service. Participants are encouraged to collage, draw, paint, stamp, or illustrate a postcard or envelope.

All submitted works will be displayed at CMA's World Fair event scheduled for February 10, 2018 and select works will be featured on www.cantonart.org.
