Open Call For Submissions

Is the USPS still a vital service? Some claim it should be defunded, reorganized, or relegated to the dustbin of history. And yet so many others rely on the postal system to get essential medications, submit legal documents, send cards to loved ones, make art, and perhaps most pertiently, vote in elections. The post means many different things to different people. What does it mean to you? 

Send mail art for the POST POST? project to:
     Bolivar Art Gallery
     Attn: Class ART 504 / Prof. Kienle
     236 Bolivar Street
     Lexington, KY 40506

​
All submissions will be included in an online exhibit at University of Kentucky’s Bolivar Art Gallery. Upon conclusion of the exhibition the archive will be donated to the Lucille Caudill Little Fine Arts Library at the University of Kentucky. Submit by November 2020 to be included in the online exhibition. This exhibition is organized by University of Kentucky’s MFA Curatorial Studies Students.
