Local Dem Susie Cambria recently blogged this important opportunity for Northumberland creatives: A call from Postcards for Virginia:
Postcards For Virginia, www.postcards4va.com is encouraging creative types to design postcards for four new postcard campaigns for the 2026 midterms.
The winning four postcard designs featuring original artwork will be sold through the organization’s Proshop. Postcards For Virginia cannot pay for designs. Rather, sales will “go directly toward protecting democracy.”
