Artists & Fleas

The last few weeks have been busy ones here at Scared Panda HQ – aka Apartment #15. With the Holidays coming up we’re busy gift wrapping your orders and trying to squeeze in a few more markets before the year ends. This weekend and the weekend before Thanksgiving we were lucky enough to be part of Artist’s & Fleas in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Not only did we introduce a our fresh batch of kid’s tees in the first market but we made some new friends as well.

Our new friend Serene runs this awesome business under the name Leroy’s Place. As you can see from the picture, she turns right funky old prints you might find in your grandparents house into her own masterpiece.

Organic t-shirts are good for the earth and good for the kiddos sensitive skin.

It wouldn’t be a market in Brooklyn without an in house DJ.

Kate mans (or is it womans?) the booth.

Hester Street Fair In Pictures

Yesterday was our first street fair in New York City at the Hester Street Fair on the Lower East Side. Things started out pretty good and held steady through the day. A little bit of a rain came through in the afternoon but all that did was create a party in our tent. We met a lot of really cool people and made some new friends.

For the past couple months my friend and Scared Panda Strategic Consultant, Jay, has suggested that some of our prints would be a hit in kids sizes. Up until now I really didn’t want to get into the kids zone for t-shirts. But, this weekend I met and talked to a bunch of cool parents who “would totally” dig our tees in kids sizes. I’m gonna look into it and will let you know.

Andersonville Arts Weekend

Last weekend we headed down to Pilsen for the kickoff of Chicago Artists Month. I had such a great time meeting local artists, looking at their work and drinking the free wine. It’s great to meet fellow entrepreneurs and hear their stories, share lessons learned and inspirations.

We’re excited to have a similar experience tomorrow at Andersonville Arts Weekend. If you’re around this weekend, I strongly suggest you take some time to explore this fantastic neighborhood (may I suggest Hopleaf for a beer afterward?) and support some very talented local artists.

Check us out @ the Critical Mass Art Show Friday

In its 13th year, the Critical Mass Art Show was created to keep the group active through the Winter when the monthly rides were likely to be less frequent.

We’re incredibly excited to announce that one of our newest t-shirts, “Tall Bike Love” by Brian Duffy will be on display at this month-long art festival. Join us at New Wave Coffee (2557 N. Milwaukee) on Friday to help kick of the art fair. Stop by to say hi, chat, browse the local art and support Scared Panda. Shirts will be available for sale Friday night.

RSVP to this event on Facebook and tell your friends.

Hope to see you there!
