In the digital age should letters continue to be written and sent via 'snail mail'? Is communication all about convenience and speed? What do those born into a world when "what is your address?" refers to their email than their abode.

The exhibition Gift of A Letter explores these questions and surfaces some of the dilemmas of our modern age. By questioning our assumptions and providing examples of letters that provide a glimpse into the power and pervasiveness of letters in our lives, the exhibition hopes to encourage people to write letters (again).

As part of the exhibition, a group of youths from Raffles Institution were invited to share their thoughts and perspective in a project titled Letters in the Digital Age. The series of short films explore the meaning of letters and letter writing. Another group from Xinghua Primary School took up the challenge of building a robotic snail encouraging visitors to "Show some Love the Write Way!"

Visitors are invited to respond to the exhibition in various ways - vote, pen their thoughts (and excuses), share a letter, memories and stories and send a letter affixed with our specially designed stamps for the exhibition
