The Snail Mail Project | East Gippsland Art Gallery

Calling out to East Gippsland Creative Kids!

​

Do you like making and creating? Would you like to brighten someone else’s day?

Because you can, by sending a meaningful message to someone who has to stay home just like you.

​

East Gippsland Art Gallery is inviting children to participate in our fun and exciting Snail Mail Project.

You write a letter and make a small handmade gift to send to someone who lives far away and they send a letter back to you.

​

We know you are all creative kids but if you need an idea, start by introducing yourself and what activities you like doing.

​

Here’s a few handmade ideas to help you get started:

You could

  • Draw a picture of yourself, your house, your pets

  • Include your favourite recipe with a photo or drawing of the dish

  • Write a list of the things you do to cheer yourself up

  • Or list your 5 favourite songs or movies

  • Make a collage of picture cut out from old magazines

  • Create an origami animal to send

  • Make and decorate a bookmark

  • Design a card

 

Then pop it into an envelope.
