Commissioned Postcards

Fourteen artists and authors from the region created postcard-sized visual art and writing to inspire and foster togetherness amid isolation. These cards featured thoughtful language and imagery that made a lasting impact and provided meaningful connections to art and writing when the community needed it most. While physically distant from the Museum and Library, the commissioned postcards brought art and writing close to home, making it accessible to a larger audience. The postcards were distributed through local businesses and organizations and put into the hands of schoolchildren, community groups, and individuals throughout Akron and beyond.
