Kindred Post is thrilled to announce the 2026 Alaska Statewide Postcard Contest, and we’re officially calling on artists and photographers from across the state to submit their work!

Each year, thousands of visitors walk through our doors in downtown Juneau. They browse, connect, and send snail mail. The postcards they choose travel far beyond Alaska. This is your opportunity to create the postcard that will travel the world.
Art That Travels

We’re looking for original artwork and photography that captures something meaningful — whether that’s the wild beauty of Alaska, a burst of color, a quiet moment, or a reflection of what feels needed right now.

Selected designs will be professionally printed and sold at Kindred Post as part of our official postcard collection. From there, they’ll be mailed across the globe by visitors who want to carry a piece of Alaska home with them.

We strive to promote cooperation and an exchange of ideas among those interested in or engaged in quilt making; to instruct members in methods and techniques and to inspire personal achievement; and to encourage and maintain high standards of design and technique in quilt making.

All levels of quilters are invited and encouraged to attend!

Bring your ukulele and have some fun playing with the group.
Meets on Wednesdays at 3:45pm at the Inn at Creek Street!

Join Rick Lloyd, Louise Loretan and a variety of special guests for an evening celebrating the uniqueness of Ketchikan.
