CALL FOR ARTWORK: SUBMIT YOUR POSTCARD ART!

Calico + The GLCU Present:
“MAIL ROOM”
An Exhibition of Postcard Art
at The Good Luck Center of the Universe
230 State Road, Kittery, ME

Artists are invited to submit postcard-sized artwork - mailed via USPS - to The Good Luck Center of the Universe in Kittery, ME. The “Mail Room” exhibit will serve as a portal of connection receiving and sending artwork, wishes, and blessings back into the world.

How it works:

Create postcard-sized, mailable artwork. Add a stamp, drop it in the mail, and let the Universe do the rest. All submissions are reviewed for inclusion. Accepted works will be displayed in the “Mail Room” show. As the collection grows, artwork will be shared via our web store and social media, with a public celebration & opening reception of the works on April 11, 2026. The opening will coincide with a 2-person exhibition happening in the space simultaneously.
