Us Washington Center staffers are constantly searching for new and unusual buttons and pins--and you probably should be, too! Collecting and trading has a tradition at national political conventions. The Denver Post yesterday ran a short story about local artists that have pitched in with their own designs. Members of the Campaign 2008 staff found the buttons at Tattered Corner book store downtown last night and purchased a few for $4 each. Click here for a look at the buttons or to find locations to buy them. The buttons are intended to display and get the word out about Denver's local artists and 10 percent of sales go to the city host committee. What a great, unique way to support local art and revel in the convention experience at the same time!
