Ok so this is a crazy idea likely brought on by far too little sleep, far too much pizza and much internet searching on selling art but here it is anyway.

We should set up a huge art show will all the DPC folks that could do it. It would be a blast I think.

OK easy part done and likely as far as it is going to go but sometimes you have to let the ideas escape your mind before they take over.

Considering that the membership is spread around the world, how would we do this?

Sounds reasonable. I'll take up a collection to advance you $10k or so to get things rolling.

...oh, hey, I need you to send me $500 to setup the collection fund drive. You can just take the reimbursement out of the $10k.

Depending on if there is a real desire to do it and if it is even feasible I would say it would need to be regional. Like I said I have had too little sleep and too much pizza so I got as far as "Hey this would be a cool thing to do"

You disappoint me Ken, I was expecting a photo of you putting on a show or something along those lines.

An art show would be hard. An art book would be easier. (Speaking in terms of logistics, of course. Funding either project is a challenge in itself.)

Ooh an Art book sounds interesting. Of course the logistics behind that could be a nightmare, especially if we would try and split royalties. Interesting though.
