Hello!

Dear Everyone,

Hello, Steven here! With the fall coming, Shane and I have decided to make a little promise to all of our participants. We realize the need and the want to receive items from projects much faster then you have in the past. However, this was very slow and sometimes took months for you to receive your item, causing you to possibly lose trust and excitement in our projects. We want to change that. Starting now, with any new project we start, you will receive your package in less then 2 weeks (unless otherwise stated.) We hope that this will allow more creativity to flow and more time for you to work on your creations.

Speaking of new projects, we have some exciting new things on the horizon. Our next project is called The Scavenger Project, which is a scavenger hunt of sorts. When you sign up, we will send you a confidential folder with a list of 24 items. The things on the list are not just things you can find anywhere. They are things you have to look for. And they are not just items, they are moments and scenarios. It will allow you to be creative and to compare what you come up with to other people all over the world!

Here is the best part: It is going to made into a book! Everyone who participates in this project will have at least one picture in the book. The goal of the book is to showcase how a mass of creatives will portray subjects differently based on their own experience, their individual eye, and geographic location. We're excited to give everyone a chance to be published in a book!

Our new website – which Shane has been hard at work on and will be done in about a month or so – will allow for even more communication between participants. You will be able to post your progress on projects, upload photos as you work and even ask for critiques and suggestions! We will have areas that will let you communicate with others involved in the same projects so you can collaborate and brainstorm together. We are looking to bring the artists "co-op" feel to the internet!

We want to thank everyone who has ever been a part of Art House! We are so excited about the future and hope that you are, too. Without everyone's excitement, none of this would be possible.

Thank you,

Steven Peterman and Shane Zucker
