They say the age of snail mails are long gone, but contrary to popular belief there is a huge community who are a part of the #snailmairevolution! There is a community of people who continue the practice of exchanging mail using regular post office services all working to revive the dying art of pen-palling.
As a snail mail advocate myself, I continue to  write to different penpals from all across the globe and exchange written stories and hand-crafted mail art.
This class is perfect for both the simply curious and also for those passionately interested in the idea of pen-palling. Take part in this worldwide movement of keeping the love for analogue alive through ‘old school’ letter writing!
This ultimate guide to starting your penpal journey will discuss the following topics:
- Introduction to the Snail Mail Revolution
- Finding My First Penpal
- Making My First Snail Mail + Mail Art
- Sending Mail via the Post Office
- Keeping My Penpal: Penpal Etiquette
- Project Brief +Giveaway Details
- Snail Mail + Mail Art Project: Instructional Video
At the end of the class, you’d be set with all the information and confidence to take a part of the Snail Mail Revolution and send off that first penpal letter via post.
I am looking forward to welcoming you to be a part of the penpalling community!
