Hope you are doing well, playing it safe and staying healthy.

Anyway, 2020 has been one dumpster fire of a year. Most all of our host venues closed for a while and many are still shuttered. Yet, some installs have been active in light of the pathogen. Artists have used their downtime to load us up with fresh art and we are well stocked for the first time in years. Some of our solid venues have closed permanently while some newbies have signed on. A few of these newbie venues got their ArToMaT® only to be shafted/shuttered a few weeks later due to the shutdown. They are doing their best while combining creativity and safety. Early on, one of our breweries actually had a social distancing referee who would whistle and throw a flag if people got too close. End of day, we are all ready to bounce back once the protocol lifts.

In this photo album are some pics of new installs from North Carolina to Alaska. Venue links in the photo info. Check them out and sign up to their social media feeds. They are doing good things.

FYI, our ArToCartons are very fun and perfect to gift and/or brighten your day. They kept our studio afloat during this mess and we plan to keep them as an offering for anyone who cannot easily visit one of our host venues. For more info on art delivered to your door, please visit our online store on ArToMaT.org.

If you are a potential host and feel an ArToMaT would be a good thing for your venue…please give us a shout.

Always, support the local, check in on family, friends, neighbors and hug a doggo.

Sincerely,

Clark
