Write NOW! Celebrate the History and Art of Correspondence

by admin last modified Oct 29, 2017 05:55 PM
In anticipation of Veterans Day, please join us in honoring past and present military personnel by celebrating the history and art of correspondence at the Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum. This rich history is on display in our exhibition “My Fellow Soldiers: Letters from World War I,” which brings back to life the powerful and heartfelt letters between family, friends and service members during the war. In addition, we have planned many wonderful activities for children including a flag ceremony, a letter writing workshop, a family history booth, a poppy-making station, and guided gallery tours. Girl Scout troops are also invited to earn their “Celebrating Community” badge through their program participation. Free; no registration required. Visit our website for more information.
