BLP summer love -Letter #5

Hello fans of all things awesome! (especially street art)
The summer heat has definitely seemed to hit hard right off the bat! Fortunately we have not been spending a lot of time outside painting. Instead, we've been spending a lot of time partnering with some really cool people and coming up with some awesome ideas for the future. Here's where we are now...
1. CALLING ALL BLP FANS, SOCIAL MEDIA JUNKIES, FACEBOOK LOVERS, ETC...WIN A BLP SHIRT!!!
Scion is running a competition between cities to see who can upload the most digital media to their site (pics or vids of whatever!) and we're currently in 5th place. The city with the most media uploaded by the end of the month wins a nice sum of cash for the city's nonprofit...ours being the Baltimore Love Project!!! Whoever uploads up the most media, wins a Baltimore Love Project shirt! Here are the directions:
2. Click on either the “Contribute Art” or “Face Art Lab” tabs at the top left of the screen
3. Submit Artwork or Create Your Own – Remember to put your city in there & share it out!
2. SCION EVENT REVIEW
Last week we had an event with Scion, the car company, down in Fell's Point, next to Soundgarden. It was really cool to see people coming off the street to support! We raised a good amount of money and Scion matched it all. They are even matching contributions we get through the month! If you're into magic and want to turn a dollar bill into two, donate on our cause page! Thans to the Creative Alliance for bacing us!

3. ART LOVE
Some of you were not able to make our fundraiser event last month at Silo Point, INNOVATE LOVE. I know you have seen pictures from the event, but I just put up all the work that is still available on this flicker site. This is the work that is still available for sale. All artists, from around the country, were asked to create to the theme of "Innovate Love". Which is your fav? At least 50% of the proceeds to the Baltimore Love Project. Some artists have even donated 100%!!!
That's all for now. We have more in the works for July including a block party and an exciting release of a limited edition print, which I'll write about later in the week.
