AIGA COLORADO PROUDLY PRESENTS
164 Fifth Avenue New York, NY
So put your hands up like this city can’t hold us. When AIGA invited us to New York to host this show, we were like, Na na na na na na na na! Heeeeeeeeeyyyy. Alright, ok! (translation: we danced in celebration and said, let’s do this!) So raise your hands and praise AIGA National for [...] | More…
We are gearing up for the opening event for BBNYC, and besides all the great boards and great people that will be there, every bash needs some beats. We are super excited to have Dash Speaks providing the music on Wednesday May 8th! See it in the works! Along with many weekly DJ residencies in [...] | More…
In his street art/graffiti/illustration work, Dan Pheo’s work can go dark, or sometimes a little outlaw. The board he made for BBNYC, seems to suggest a lighter path, almost like he slid right through an artist’s palette.

Major shout-out to our print sponsor, D&K Printing in Boulder, Colorado, for making our book wall possible. Having made our collectable catalogs for past BB events, we knew they would kill it for BBNYC! dkprinting.com | More…
We are bringing the silent auction fun to our Wednesday event for everyone to enjoy. So we elected all the New York artists to be available only for their audience – like we have done at our local events – and then the rest are available eBay auction. See what these NY artists created… Dana [...] | More…
Denver-based artist Andrew Hoffman really cuts through the s**t with his board for BBNYC. Setting aside the fine hand-drawn details that are often seen in much of his work, and going straight for the gold leaf, he has presented us with a no-nonsense message. Andrew works prolifically in varied styles and mediums; you can’t throw [...] | More…
