New nonprofit stamp arrives

The Postal Service will release Summer Sunset, a nondenominated stamp intended for bulk mailings by authorized nonprofit organizations, on Thursday, June 25.

The nonprofit-rate stamp features an image of a glowing sunset over water.

Derry Noyes, an art director for USPS, designed the stamp with existing art from Rachael Cassiani.

Cassiani’s artwork is an oil painting of a sunset in Menemsha, a fishing village in the town of Chilmark, MA, on Martha’s Vineyard.

The Summer Sunset stamp will be sold in coils of 3,000 and 10,000 at Post Offices and on usps.com.

The stamp will be released in Edgartown, MA, without a ceremony.
