Frame A Piece, Support The Project

noreply@blogger.com (Kris) — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 02:25:00 +0000

The Art and Frame Gallery has agreed to help support the Artist-In-Transit Project by providing special coupons that will be hidden in the baggies with each artifact!

Here is the deal: You find an artifact. If you choose to get the artifact framed you receive a 40% off discount for the cost of the frame with the coupon you found.

In addition to your savings, 10% of the total cost of the framing ticket will be credited to an account that will offset some of the costs of art supplies like paint, canvas panels, brushes, and inks to help make the Artist-In-Transit project more sustainable.

No one should ever feel obligated to get a piece framed, but if you do, consider using the Art and Frame Gallery and make sure to thank them for supporting the Artist-In-Transit project!

To this point, all of the art supply costs have been at my own expense. It has truly been my pleasure. I have to admit is nice to have the support of a local sponsor to help make it possible to continue this fun project. Thanks to all of you who have already offered your support in so many ways to keep the art moving!

I apologize for the slight break in the action. I am finishing some of my graduate school final writings. That has given us time to get some of these details ironed out. I am getting geared back up to start hiding more art. Stay tuned for the next piece coming soon to a city block near you...

Thanks for your support!
