Fe-Mail Box would like to invite you to:
participate in a mail art exhibition themed “Where Are You Coming From?” We have accepted regional and international artists to submitting 4” x 6” original work on paper for exhibition and sale. Painting, drawing, photography, printmaking and mixed media are all welcome. We are accepting submissions until June 5th.


"Where are you coming from?", opens Friday, June 12 as part of the East End Arts District summer art walk, with a public reception from 5 – 9 pm, at anderson’s art box/east end applied arts, 1556 Florence Street, 80010 in Aurora. The exhibition continues through July 8 from noon – 5.30pm. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

Some standout entries include the small and sweet: photographic multi-media, abstract prints, urban figurative drawings, multiple plastic/ fiber arts, expatriate gleanings, and small airbrushed corporate logos. The logos deftly reference the graffiti of the corporate culture. Flipping back mail art to a page before the slick magazines discovered it- the entry, how not to draw a bunny, calls to mind the documentary, how to draw a bunny, on mail art founder Ray Johnson.
