I am delighted to finally be  putting my mail art into the mail to send to the island most far.

Oh my dear Patricio, thank you for sharing this with us. And thank you for writing directly to ask the question. And don’t you love the post mistress’ name? Iris! Como el arco.

Mim, nice to hear from you.  I asked myself the same question on January 2020.  I contacted the island and this was the answer

When I discovered this group I fell in love immediately. Being located "somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean", such an unusual address, moved me. I sent an email to the post office last Friday.  This is the answer:                                                                                                                           "Dear Patricio                                                                                            
Yes I know about this group. I was asked by Morice Marcuse before this group was created.
We have already received lots of mail art. However we were unable to make the display last year as our Post Office & Tourism Centre was severely damaged by a storm. We just managed to get back into the Centre before Christmas and is hoping to have the mail art displayed  this year.

Kind regards
Iris

How can I not join a group sending mail art to the remotest spot? I'm a little slow to get started on this but will send something before too long.

As a new member to this group, and about to embark on a new piece to send off to this isolated island, I have a question? Since the island is small, and has a small population, what will they do with the influx of wonderful mail? Is there a designated Archivist? Do they even know that these pieces are arriving. Are you the Liaison, Mikel?  Now back to work on a new piece.

A little envelope and a postcard on its way. Someone else did the sewing and embroidery for the sweet little envelope.
