Dear Dyslexia: The Postcard Project is an opportunity to showcase the diversity of the dyslexic experience. The project invites dyslexics of all ages — from students to professionals — to depict their relationship with dyslexia on postcards using words and images. The goal is to activate a global community around the unique strengths and perspectives that dyslexia offers — what we call “hyper-abilities.”
Dear Dyslexia was launched locally in San Francisco in 2022 as part of an exhibit featuring artwork by high-profile dyslexics. The postcards were all created by dyslexic individuals in response to a simple prompt: What is dyslexia to you?
The contributions kept coming long after the exhibit ended. Now, more than 500 postcards from all over the world can be found in our online gallery.
The postcards will be featured in an upcoming exhibit coinciding with Dyslexia Awareness Month (October 2023) as a way to inspire and educate the next generation of dyslexic thinkers.
