The transition from a self-taught teenager reading painting manuals to a nationally recognized artist marks a career milestone for Cassiani, who was born on the island in 1992. USPS art director Derry Noyes discovered the work in a local gallery, selecting the scene for its ability to capture the specific atmosphere of the Chilmark fishing village. The stamp is available exclusively for authorized nonprofit organizations in self-adhesive coils of 3,000 and 10,000.
This release coincides with the Postal Service’s 250th year of operations. As an independent federal entity that functions without tax dollars, the agency relies on such philatelic offerings to help sustain its logistics network. The Summer Sunset stamp can be acquired through the official Postal Store website, by phone, or at post office locations across the country.
