Hi All!
The 100Shirts Exhibition is up and running!
As of yesterday, the 100Shirts Exhibition went live! You are now able to go and visit the exhibition in MICROZINE, on Bold Street in Liverpool City Centre. There has already been considerable interest from other designers and artists who have seen all of your designs up so we think the exhibition will continue to draw the crowds over the next two weeks!
The 08 PLace - Liverpool Capital of Culture
A couple of weeks ago, we contacted four artists who's designs had been chosen to go into production by the 08 Place - the official Capital of Culture Shop in Liverpool City Centre. The chosen designs have been produced on to limited edition tees to be sold during the exhibition as an added feature, alongside the 100Shirts Exhibition at MICROZINE.
The designs were chosen to feature in the 08 Place as they felt the artwork fitted well with their own branding and the capital of culture theme.
The 4 lucky artists who had their designs chosen for the 08 Clothing range are:
Lynsey Hackett - Liverbirds - Produced into Limited edition Women's tees
Jeremy Southgate - Who's your daddy? - Limited edition Men's tees
Joe Bramall - Tower Birds - Limited edition Men's tees
Jenny Knight - Birds by Knight! - Produced into limited edition children's tees
Their tees have now all been printed and labelled and will be on sale at the 08Place on Monday morning. Congratulations to all of you!
Press Releases
There will be various press releases over the coming two/ three weeks. The first one will be through the Culture Company and again, several artists have been contacted already regarding these. We are just waiting for the artist's to grant us permission and will let you all know how the interviews go!
We expect there to be several more over the next couple of weeks and hope to involve different 100Shirts artists where we can. If you are interested in talking to the press and taking part in a short interview, email me and let me know and I can put you forward for the next ones when they arise! (How exciting!?!)
Well, that's all for now! If any of you take any good digipics when you visit the exhibition in MICROZINE, please do send me a couple and I will make sure they are shared around & posted on to the blog!
We will be coming to you all with options for purchasing your shirts too - Hopefully by tomorrow - So stay peeled if you are wanting to buy your shirts.
That's all for now folks! Have a great weekend!
Bob :-)
