Investing in gold and art is for everyone. Join Busy Beaver Button Company to celebrate the Grand Opening of its new headquarters with a new Button-O-matic series featuring the first-ever 24-karat gold buttons on August 8, 2009 in Chicago.

Series Ten curator Dustin Hostetler aka Upso from Threadless Select and Faesthetic Magazine used the theme “Currency” to organize artists including Threadless friends; Spacesick, Ginette Lapalme, Travis Millard, Christopher Norris, Damien Correll & Nicholas Gazin!

Busy Beaver received a Small Business Improvement Fund (SBIF) grant from the city of Chicago to rehab a vintage storefront in Logan Square with geothermal heating and cooling, salvaged materials, and recycled rubber tire floors. The opening party features a ribbon cutting with Alderman Rey Colon, and a diverse showcase of Busy Beaver button customers including a DIY ice cream maker, pirate radio station, and music.

Hope to see you there! More info at: BusyBeaver.net
