About “Art is Everywhere Mailboxes of Marco Island”

In 2020 Marco Island Center for the Arts launched the” Art is Everywhere” project aimed at finding the art in everyday life around Marco Island. This project entitled “Art is Everywhere” was the brainchild of board member Mary Pat Palombo and features some of the most artful, amusing, and creatively inspired mailboxes around Marco Island. Palombo was joined by fellow board member Bruce Robertson, whose assistance helped to make the project a big success. Much in the way that other cities such as Philadelphia and New York capture the unique beauty found in doors, Marco Island’s mailboxes are unique and extraordinary.
