Art At Work

admin — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 03:53:36 +0000

We got a sneak peek on some great custom Malcolm Fontier bags. We donated 30 bags to Atlanta’s “Art at Work” a program that supplies art instruction to teens, along with broadening their sense of community & artistic experience. The painted bags came out beautifully! All bags are being auctioned at an Art At Work event this Friday.

We jumped at the invitation to get involved with the Atlanta based organization Art at Work. This awesome organization introduces young people that are interested in the arts to different creative professions through an after school program. The students apply for the limited number of openings where they are paid to create different art and design projects. The organizers mix in educational field trips to visit a range of creative studios. We hosted the group at our studio and gave them an intro to industrial design and a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of our accessories line.

After the Launch Party

The party was great! Thanks to all those that came out, and for those that missed it- we hope to see you next time.

The Solefood space worked out perfectly and people loved where the new line is going.

The custom bags were a huge hit, all of them were sold through a silent auction to proud new owners raising a nice size donation for Dress For Success.

Custom Artist Bags

If you haven’t heard about about our launch party coming up on June 6th, then you need to get caught up right now- visit our Events section for a full description.

But this post is about the custom artists’ bags. They are just starting to come in, but I must say- what we have seen so far is sick! All 8 bags and 1 wallet(Jan wasn’t satified with just 1 piece) will be on display at the launch party. They will all be for sale through a silent auction to benefit the Dress For Success non-profit organization.

Check out this one from John Tindel:

I have to add that I met John close to 10 years ago as he was hustling his paintings in the parking lot of a Phish show. It’s been great to see his rise as an artist. Every time I turn around his name is showing up on very cool and high profile collaborations. We are honored to have him on board for our project.

Lucas Irwin’s work in progress:

Ryan Bubnis lays down his distinct style:

R.Land- Crazy details!

Jan Huling- takes a totally different approach, love it!

NYC Launch Party

The party is over- for now. If you’re landing here from another site you can see the event details below.

The party happened in NYC on June 6th as the official launch of our new line. If you missed it, be sure to stay in touch so you don’t miss the next one. And, if you want to check out our line you can see it at www.malcolmfontier.com.

Since we developed the line around a love for urban adventures and travel, it only makes sense to take the party on the road. What better place than one of the greatest cities in the world- New York!

Join us in Tribeca for a full day and evening of art, entertainment and of course great design. You can expect good company, drinks and tasty treats, product giveaways, charity benefits and more….
