Nest introduces a line of limited edition artist tees to help benefit Art Start, a non-profit dedicated to arts education for underserved children and teens. The collection launched at the pop-up Wired store last Friday and participating artists include Joel Dugan (his characteristic nautically themed octopus design is pictured here), Jackie Gendel, Anne Hall, Martin Mazorra, and Scott Rosenberg and all tees are made using labor and eco-friendly practices by Pigeon Ex.
Available at the Wired store or at Pigeon-Ex's new retail space in Fort Greene (opening this Friday), which will also carry a Nest-produced line that redesigns the Students for a Free Tibet logo to benefit the organization. Online the tees run $30 at Nest.
