Information

AKA Anna Banana Appreciation Band (ABAB)

The theme is Bananas & Anna Banana. Many of our members are « bananas » themselves, others are »fruity », a few are « nutty », and one is completely « ape ».

If you are none of these, don’t worry we can help you with specially designed projects and exams for your progress to the banana status you deserve.

We will also explore the many works of Anna Banana as we give appreciation for involvement in Mail Art & "Art".

PS I you are « crackers » or « loony », this group may not be for you.

Also: see link and fill in the form and return it to Anna Banana!

Comment by Ilya Semenenko-Basin on June 2, 2021 at 3:57pm: I recently received Mim's beautiful Banana Day work in the mail. I also exchanged a few letters with the famous Anna Banana last autumn and winter. All this gave me the idea to make a collage with Banana's image on it. I made two artworks on postcards (standard format). Topic: “The Banana Eaters”.
