My good friends are putting on the 10th annual La Superette this year in NYC. It’s a little hard to describe, but basically it’s a huge art challenge, but the challenge is to make multiple edition, retail ready art that will be shown in a gallery, but set up like a store. It happens in December, they usually have bands and lectures and classes throughout the event. This time around it looks like it’ll be going on for 3 weeks!

I’d like to encourage you all to put something together for the show, it’s a fun challenge (we usually make games), the gallery is at Times Square, and it’s a great way to make a few extra bucks. We’ll be testing out a new game this month here in Portland to see if it has what it takes for a La Superette submission. If you are around the 27th of October, come on by for a game: 8pm till late: zing me for a location.
