News | June 13, 2002 | ZakkaCorp.com online

The online store is finally in service. Our friends at Klimate built the backend-shopping cart while David Yu contributed to this month's splash page. We currently only have American title magazines and books but are adding Japanese titles in the upcoming months. If you've been to our store you know that we not only carry books but toys, t-shirts, magazines, posters, videos and all sorts of design and art related materials, they too will be included to the shop shortly.

As mentioned before this site will not only function as a store but as a community as well. We'll be inviting different designers each month to contribute to the splash page. We're also working on an online gallery to exhibit work that will either compliment current shows at Zakka or stand-alone works only viewable here.

Zakka is always open to suggestions, please contact us at info@zakkacorp.com, also please sign up to our mailing list for future developments on the site, new exhibits, and new products.

Exhibition | April 22, 2002 | ART-T SHOW
Zakka is pleased to announce the Art-T Show. The t-shirt has become more than a simple form of clothing - it has evolved into an art piece with political expression / visual stimulus / an identity piece. That is why we feel it fitting that we exhibit the creative individuals out there that have contributed to this medium. We are now accepting t-shirt designs from amateurs to professionals to exhibit in this show. Please view all the rules for entries here.
