My parents still have some of my childhood art around the house, though they probably have 10 pieces of my sister’s art for every one of mine. It’s not that they love her more (I keep telling myself that), it’s just that she’s actually an artist. Not only has she produced way more art than I have, but hers is also much better. As much as most artists would hate to admit it, the art world is largely a meritocracy. Art House Co-op is a Brooklyn, NY based company that is democratizing art by organizing “global, collaborative art projects.” Their projects are open to everyone, so even I could participate if I wanted to.

Co-operate

Art House Co-ops flagship project is called the Sketchbook Project. It’s “an evolving library that features more than 27,545 artists’ books contributed by creative people from 130+ countries.” They also run the Brooklyn Art Library, a Mobile Library, and a Digital Library. I could keep telling you about it, but you should really just visit SketchbookProject.com. They say “it’s like a taco truck with sketchbooks.” If that sounds like a dream come true, take a look at Art House Co-op’s Jobs page. Right now they’re looking for a Communications Manager and Part-Time Digitizer.
