(it's me, Ben. I'm the therapist.)

Every month I run free art therapy. Six people sit in folding chairs and make things they're scared to make. I put all of it in an envelope and mail it to strangers. That's you. You're the stranger. $10/month.

← this is the best deal in art. I did the math. (I did not do the math.)
Subscribe — $10/mo

“Don't Take Our Word For It”

“I subscribed as a joke. I have now gifted 4 subscriptions. I am not laughing anymore. I am crying. At work.”

— Sarah T., Portland

“My therapist asked where I'm getting all these feelings from. I showed her the envelope. She subscribed.”

— Anonymous

“I put Derek's sticker on my boss's laptop. I've been promoted twice.”

— James K., Denver

“Marcus's list of '11 Things I'd Rather Do Than Make Small Talk' got me through Thanksgiving.”

— Diane R., Buffalo

“My mailman asked me what I'm getting. I told him. He subscribed. His route takes 20 minutes longer now because he reads everything.”

— Mike P., Austin

“I thought $10 was expensive until I realized I spend $7 on a coffee I don't even like.”

— Lisa M., Chicago

QUESTIONS?

“Is this a real therapy group?”

Yes. No. It's complicated. Subscribe and find out.

“What if I don't like art?”

You haven't seen our art. Also, that's exactly the kind of thing someone in our therapy group would say.

“Can I cancel anytime?”

Yes, but you won't. Nobody has. That's either a testament to the art or a cry for help.

“Do you ship internationally?”

$11/month. The extra dollar is for the stamp, not my profit margin. I promise.

“What's in the envelope?”

A postcard, a sticker, a poem-list, a dance video QR code, a playlist, an absurdist flyer, and a letter. Also feelings. Lots of feelings.

“100% Art, 0% Murder?”

Correct.
