Lightning Pitch: SketchBox – Monthly subscription box for art and art supplies

ELEVATOR PITCH

Monthly subscription box for art and art supplies.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

SketchBox was created with the intention of empowering more artists to do what they love—make art! Every month, we deliver five-to-six premium art supplies right to your doorstep along with a unique piece of art to inspire you. What would you make if art supplies were delivered to you every month?

We emphasize art instead of selling art supplies. More often than not, our product is given as a gift and creates a new artist one-box-at-a-time.

FOUNDER

Jon Gougeon – Background in graphic design, apparel design and advertising.

“Growing up in Detroit I was presented with a citywide blank slate at a young age. Quickly I gravitated towards the art scene, however one message was clear – people didn’t have access to the proper supplies. This sentiment is echoed all throughout the art community, not just Detroit. SketchBox exists to empower artists with professional tools to do what they love.”
