MASS MoCA is the largest center for contemporary arts in the United States. The institution is dedicated to the creation and presentation of provocative visual and performing arts pieces, and of works that blur conventional distinctions between artistic disciplines. Far more important, the shop at Mass MoCA – Hardware – now includes a stunning collection of Whigby.

the powerHouse Arena – laboratory for creative thought and home to world-renowned art book publisher POWERHOUSE BOOKS, just ordered another batch of Whigby (Dumbo likes Whigby). We agree with Peter M. Mayer, President of The Overlook Press when he says, "the powerHouse Arena has expanded New Yorkers' sense not only of where it's happening, but of what's happening." 

Just another day at the Javitz Center in New York City. By noon, the truck will be packed and Todd will be on the road heading back to Toronto with over 30 new Whigby accounts (including two museum stores) and just as many reorders. The show was a big success. We've also inked a deal with the very best team in Southern California to represent Whigby. Back home on Crown's Lane, we're busy lining up supplies and a small army of summer students to start picking and packing. Go Team Whigby! Is that Michele Temporale (above right), helping out booth-side? Yes it is. Thank you Michele.

Two Whigby cards are featured on Svpply: a stylish "by invitation only" bookmarking site. On a different (but related) note, we have many new retail partners to thank (three this week alone!) for signing on with Whigby – look for a series of blog notices over the next few weeks. Right now, we're madly getting ready for the National Stationery Show – less than a week away. We're launching lots of new products, so don't forget to visit us at booth 1935.

"Earth Day" (above, left) is Whigby cofounder Frank Viva's second cover for The New Yorker. Us? We're celebrating Earth Day tomorrow by taking our bikes to the office.
