Last year's September Meetup gallery show was so great, we want to do it again, but even better!

This year the theme of the show is "Threadless Remix". We're looking for work that is inspired by, or is a re-imagining of your favorite printed Threadless design. It can be a drawing, painting, photograph, print or whatever you'd like as long as it's a 'remix' of a Threadless design in your own style.

If you'd like to do something in 3D, make sure you let me know what you're making so we can plan out how it can be hung. We must be able to hang it from a wall at about eye level, so no pointy things.

Your work must come ready to hang (we'll be using either nails or clips), so make it look nice! I recommend framing your work if its a print, drawing, etc.

You can either mail your work in or bring it with you up to the day before the meetup (Friday, September 9th).

Here's the mailing address:

Threadless.com
attn: Rachel Gottesman
1260 W. Madison St.
Chicago, IL 60642


If you'd like to show your work, please email me (rachelg@threadless.com) with the following info:

Your Name
Title of your work
Tee you're remixing
Medium


Have fun artists, we'll be enjoying your work in September!

I would want to make one as a sculpture (I'm currently infatuated with sculpture right now) but you wouldn't be able to hang it :( Let me think about this and see if I've got time to do something more hanging friendly.

Is there a cut off date or limited number of spaces available?

   Rachel Ray Gun on Jul 14 '11 at 3:05pm
I'd like to get the info from you guys within the next month or so, and right now there's no number cutoff. We'll see once work starts coming in!

The only reason I'm trying to avoid freestanding sculpture is...it WILL get knocked over. But we can always mount a shelf to the wall if it's small enough!

rachel, do you have room for a performance installation?

it's tentatively titled "I Wish They Had Beer Here"

Are we allowed to remix threadless designs that have not been printed yet? I'd like to work on a piece inspired by "Aquaman's in your house"

What's up now, Ray Gun?

pyr4lis on Jul 14 '11 at 9:21pm
Haha.. well I could experiment with something that is a bit more durable than clay? That way if it knocks over it has a better chance of not breaking... maybe lol

The first piece has arrived, and it's great!

There's still plenty of room, so sign up! Remember, you don't have to be attending the meetup to show/ sell your work!

Rachel Ray Gun
   Rachel Ray Gun on Aug 15 '11 at 3:39pm
I think maybe that's a very good idea ;) Please email me which design you're basing it on!
