Toronto Timeraiser 201

This March will mark Toronto Timeraiser's 9th annual silent art auction and they've just started looking for submissions!

If you aren't familiar with the Toronto Timeraiser, in a nutshell, it's a silent art auction. The big twist, however, is that rather than bid money, people bid volunteer hours. Winning bidders have one year to complete their pledge by volunteering with their various agencies within their respective city; once their pledge is fulfilled, they take home their artwork as a reminder of their goodwill.

If you're looking for more information, their website is quite informative: www.timeraiser.ca

ARTISTS! We're putting out a call for artists to submit! Applying is easy and free (see this FAQ for all questions). You simply upload 5 images of your art to their website, and then you'll get notified if your piece is chosen to be part.

You can apply directly from this link.

Good luck!

Monorex + Sid Lee + The New BEAT = danleo

Sid Lee and Monorex approached The New BEAT about documenting Irish artist danleo's mural while he was in Toronto. Opening their second office space in Toronto, Sid Lee wanted to do something special. Not only was danleo commissioned to paint an amazing mural, but the painting went down during the Sid Lee staff party.

The piece turned out amazing, but don't believe us, check it for yourself!!

Album inside spread

Band: Ten Second Epic
Project: Album Artwork, T-shirt Design
Designer: Rose Broadbent

The dudes from Ten Second Epic asked us to design their new album, 'Better Off'. The success of their international touring has brought Ten Second Epic to a level of professionalism and poise. This title symbolizes a confidence in changing thier sound to a more rock vibe.  They want to proclaim that is 'better off' to do what you love. It is 'better off' to keep making music. It is 'better off' to follow the road before you. We support this passion & want to wish them luck with this huge release!

Thanks to Black Box for this awesome opportunity, we look forward to working with you in the future!

TSE t-shirts designed by The New BEAT coming soon!
