Everything Threadless do gives you, and all the creative minds in the world, more opportunities to make great art. Threadless started printing on t-shirts and then they realized tons of products make great canvases. They seek out these canvases, so you can continue to make and pick the best art. The weird art. The geeky art. The beautiful art. And every time you buy from Threadless, you're supporting great art too.
Threadless love helping art unknowns become art totally-knowns, which is why every single one of their products carries an artist's name. Threadless support their artist community in every way possible, whether it be through annual creative awards, their commission-based award system, or simply by tweeting their name to the world. Lots of their artists have even gone on to start their own companies, and Threadless believe that's a success.
