>> Community Supported Artist 2010





about:

Based on the model of community supported agriculture, the goal of Community Supported Artist is to create a base of support for my studio practice by selling affordable art work created exclusively for this program. This is the second year of the program.

One share is designed for a household and half-shares are available. A maximum of 100 shares are produced each year and the works are a variation on a theme, not an edition. Shares are available for purchase, trade, or exchange of services.

To sign up, please download a contract. Click on the photos below to see examples of work for the CSA 2010.
