Join us (no matter where you live) for the Inaugural Exhibition of the Iowa City Correspondence School, a mail art exhibition into a time capsule for the future!


As a celebration of our new location, we're asking anyone, anywhere to take part in our initial exhibition by sending us mail art! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/publicspaceone/a-home-for-possibilities/posts/2612010">We are running the entry for this exhibition through our low threshold reward on our current kickstarter campaign.


Three simple steps get you in the door (or wall, as the case may be):


1) Pledge any amount (≥$4) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/publicspaceone/a-home-for-possibilities/posts/2612010">on our kickstarter! A $4 pledge will the stage for your participation in this exhibition (Fun fact: a pledge at any level will serve as an entry, so please, feel free to be generous and increase your pledge if you're eyeing another reward... don't worry you can still be part of this!).


2) Make some mail art. Don't quite understand what that is: do a little reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mail_art" target="_blank">here. Basically, send us something the mail carrier will be pleased or perplexed to carry! 


3) Send that mail art to us by Oct 1, 2019: PS1, 229 N. Gilbert St., Iowa City, IA 52245.


We will display everything received by backers on Oct 4. Then we will take all that mail art and bury it in our houses on location at PS1 to be discovered by future beings (aka put it in a time capsule).


Have some fun and Mail Art to the FUTURE!
