The brilliantly civic minded Cascadia Artpost is hosting a Mail Art call that is of a particularly high value for just about anybody that participates in postal antics. "Keep the Post Office Public" is a call that blows the whistle on the U.S. Government to downsize the postal workforce and reduce services.
Although the Post Office service is in the U.S. Constitution, there is an ominous buzz about privatization and the consequent functioning as a corporate entity. Who can say how much they will reduce the services by if that occurs?
The Unwinding of the Post Office.
I agree heartily with Jack - and I will be creating something depicting that appreciation for the worthy call. The Postal workers and Mail Carriers in my little town are wonderful people that I enjoy chatting and smiling with as well as the usual business. Yes, here at least, the Post Office is beloved!
The Cascadian's call has an imminent deadline of September 30th and so, I better get going on it. This is a call close to Heebee Jeebeeland's heart and I feel rather compelled to join in the fun. Thanks very much Jack and see you in the mail.
Cascadia Artpost.
