Welcome to Letters Trellis. Based on the idea of celebrating the art of correspondence, Letters Trellis is a project to encourage the writing of traditional letters. It recalls an experience in Grignan, France, where there is an annual festival to acknowledge the joy and connection possible through posted correspondence. Courtyard spaces offer table, chair and stationery for visitors to write a letter. At the end of each day, the envelopes are posted and mailed as a service from the community. Letter Trellis was formed to offer this same experience for visitors to Winchester community events. The Winchester Farmers Market has generously welcomed us for four years, allowing the space to provide materials, a sheltered area, and ideas to prompt the creation of handwritten messages from one to another. We are also grateful for our past support from the Winchester Cultural Council (a local chapter to distribute state funding of the arts) and the Winchester Historical Society.
September 14th, 2024
Letters Trellis returns to the Winchester Farmers Market September 14th.
This month the topic is “Just Write!”
Of course your well thought out, impeccably organized written letter that builds to a mind-expanding conclusion would impress the recipient of your letter. But never underestimate the gladness that is created, just receiving a handwritten letter with a simple message of greetings and good wishes.
Please stop by: Letters Trellis will provide stationery, envelope, postage, and letter writing consultation for free. You can always find many ideas and writing prompts at our website https://www.letterstrellis.com .
We are looking for potential venues to offer our pop-up Letters Trellis writing table. This can be a great opportunity to encourage handwritten letters and relationships. We are open to discussing arrangements. Please email kareful@letterstrellis.com to inquire.
We would love to hear about your letter writing experience with Letters Trellis: please fill out the survey and let us know your experience. https://forms.gle/kNoBqDkJ6eNKxpXM7 . Thank you!
