We're LIVE!
We are officially live!!! Last week, Kristy created some wonderful renderings of the SFMOMA with the can labels in place. We're excited with how far the design has come, but there is still much fund raising to do. Our goal is to have all of our sponsors in place by May 10th and all other monetary donations by May 15th. Once we have all of our funds in place, we'll be staging a mock-up of the design on Saturday, May 21. The schedule is tight, and we need everyone's help to make this a successful event. Please take the time to donate with the paypal button on the right side bar. All donations are tax deductible and any amount will be appreciated. And don't forget to tell your friends and family!

Design Concept
The design submissions have been finalized and we can finally reveal our concept! Our piece is called "I Left My Art in San Francisco" and will feature the SFMOMA with a gallery on the interior. The gallery will include a heart representing the San Francisco Heart's in SF Art Project. Kristy, our design lead, has been working on putting our design in revit and testing different can layouts. The team has also been looking at cans to see which labels will work best for our design.
In other news, McCarthy Builders has partnered up with The Design Partnership for this competition. We have met with them, and they are just as eager to get started. With the help of McCarthy, we've also been able to secure wholesale can goods for the event. That means we will be looking for monetary donations for the approximately 5,000 cans we will need for our design. Donations of any amount are appreciated and are tax deductible. For smaller donations ($100 or less) please use the paypal link on the side bar.
We are also looking for team sponsors! If you're interested in becoming a sponsor of our team and being featured on our banner and t-shirts, please contact Fumiko Docker at (415) 777-3737. Our next meeting is on Wednesday with McCarthy where we will discuss next steps.
