WORDparty BUTTON CONTEST!

A BIG GIGANTIC THANK YOU to all the amazing artists, poets and musicians who entered our Button Contest!


We had so many great entries it was very hard to choose, but everyone who came through the door on Tuesday was enthusiastic and eager to vote for their favorites, which made life a whole lot easier on us. A big thank you to everyone who came through to vote.


In total we had 35 entries of original work. From hand drawn on a napkin to fully digital designs, all were unique and tried to tie in the theme of jazz and poetry. The top 5 designs will be handed out to everyone who comes to our TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY PARTY, so come on down to WORDparty Tuesdays at Club Deluxe, Haight & Ashbury Street on Tuesday July 17th, 8pm sharp, it's going to be a great night!


Our Winners! Our audience chose 5 designs, shown in order of # of votes:
