"The postmark deadline is Dec. 8, 2025 and winners will be announced on Dec. 17. (Apparently, the contest is four months long because overseas entries can take weeks and weeks to arrive.) Winners will be displayed on the Edward Gorey House website and social media pages. There will also be prizes but, since no one has specified what they are yet, try not to feel discombobulated if a severed green thumb shows up in your letter box."
"While it's terribly fun mailing such artwork to your unimpressed grandma, your freaked-out neighbors and the "normal" loved ones in your life, the miscreants of the Edward Gorey House are asking that you send it to them instead. The museum, which was Gorey's home for more than 20 years, is dedicated to the life and work of the artist, as well as encouraging visitors and Gorey fans everywhere to stay just as strange as they'd like."
The Edward Gorey House launched its annual envelope art contest with the theme "The Evil Garden." Entrants must fill out an official online PDF with legible personal details, place the form inside a decorated envelope, and mail it to The Edward Gorey House, 8 Strawberry Ln., Yarmouth Port, MA, 02675. Last year’s theme produced many strange and imaginative responses, demonstrating that no entry is too odd. Winners will be announced Dec. 17, 2025 and displayed on the museum website and social media. Prizes will be awarded, though their nature has not been specified.
