Levis_revemp_newsletter_1117

Stencil1 is pleased to announce they will be curating another event with Levi’s, this time in their newly re-designed Levi’s® Meatpacking Store.

Guests are encouraged bring your Levi’s® denim or pick out something new for customization by Ed Roth of Stencil1. Ed has added some new custom designs due to the political climate, messages of love and unity.

“I am particularly excited about this event because I not only get to work with Levi’s again, a brand I greatly admire, but also it is in their custom specialty store. I am big on customization, it’s a great expression of one’s individuality. I think customizing your own clothes can also be affordable, yet it is a luxury to own a one-of-a-kind item.”

A group making major headlines – GAG, or Gays Against Guns – asked us to create some custom stencils with their messaging, we jumped right in and made them three different stencils that they later made DIY  t-shirts with. (Photos from GAG).

I recently designed and donated a print to be sold at a Housing Works event DESIGN ON A DIME. The inspiration was champagne bubbles and was printed on gold metallic paper with a black ink.

We donated our print to 513 Design Studio, an award-winning, multi-disciplinary creative agency, and they created a booth with our print inside.

The print sold in 10 minutes with all proceeds going to charity, I couldn’t be happier!

513 Design Studio also made the editors at Fashion Times Top 5 favorite booths at the event!
