One Year Anniversary of PhanArt’s Release!

It’s been a great year for PhanArt.  On 2/7/09 we held our kickoff party at Revolution Hall in Troy, NY (click to see photos by Andy Hill from State of Mind Magazine) and it was an immense success.  Besides the 100+ pre-ordered books, we sold 30 more books at the show, raised over $300 for Mockingbird, and set sights on Hampton. We sold over 40 books in Hampton and sold out of the first printing in less than 4 months time!

We are midway through the second printing which has been selling quite well. As of today, the 1-year anniversary of PhanArt’s publication, we have sold 374 books and raised over $1500 for Mockingbird Foundation.

Help get PhanArt in your local library!

An idea that was presented to us during Summer Tour last year piqued our interest – PhanArt: The Art of the Fans of Phish in libraries nationwide. It’s a great idea, but we discovered that making it happen would present a challenge – how do we get libraries interested in the book?

A few fans suggested that by using the Phanart blog, I could get the word out to fans more quickly, ask for their help, and ultimately sell the book to libraries all over the country which would result in even more contributions to Mockingbird!

The Library of Congress- PhanArt is in here!

Here’s what you can do to help:

1) Find your local library’s website and look for the link to ‘Recommend a book‘ or ‘Suggest a title‘. This is typically how the library looks into purchasing new titles. If for some reason, you aren’t able to find a link like this, most libraries have a keyword search tool where you can search for ‘recommend‘ or ‘suggest‘ to help you find out where to make a request of this nature.  Once you’ve done this, pass the word along to any friends who would be willing to help and ask them to do the same.

1a) If you go to college, go to that library’s site and do the same – colleges have already been purchasing PhanArt, as there is a greater demand for the book at colleges and universities.

2) Put in the information about PhanArt:

TitlePhanArt: The Art of the Fans of Phish

Author: Pete Mason

Website: www.phanart.net/blog

Make sure to note that the only place to buy it is the website, so they don’t go looking for it in the wrong place. And especially note that net profits benefit Mockingbird Foundation, which supports music education nationwide.

Tell them about the book so they are familiar with the title and seek it out. Libraries are always looking for new books, so submit a recommendation and get PhanArt in your library. Of course this means if they buy it you have a copy to check out of your local library! Check it out, share with friends, and return the book so you don’t get fined.

Drew Fioravanti fundraiser for Charleston, WV fire victims

Drew Fioravanti, creator of the Cactus shirts from Custeez Tees, heard about the sad story about a woman and her family who were out at a fundraiser and their house caught on fire. All was lost.  A single mother of three has no home, and no office either.

Drew is selflessly auctioning off these shirts to benefit the mother, including the portion that ebay and paypal take out of the final sale. He doesn’t know the woman yet came up with this idea.  Let’s help this woman and her children out.

Phans helping others. Gotta love it.  Auction links below
