Snail Mail My Email Website

Snail Mail My Email is a worldwide community art project where volunteers handwrite strangers' emails and send physical letters to the intended recipients, free of charge. 


SMME was created in 2011 by artist Ivan Cash, who originally conceived the project as a one-time, month long initiative where he would write and send out strangers’ emails one at a time.

The project ultimately received over 10,000 letter submissions and prompted Cash to enlist the help of hundreds of volunteers sending letters all over the world.

SMME has since transitioned to a week-long annual event, held every November that anyone can participate in.
