UPDATES FROM THE BOX SF IN SAN FRANCISCO!

No alt text provided for this image

Good Monday All! ??????? I am nearly 3 weeks post surgery, and as you might imagine have been going a bit nuts being this inactive and in so much pain. I have however been following Doctor’s orders,by Icing, doing my Physical Therapy, Walking as much as possible, Exercising and listening to a lot of Music. ?? I have also been brainstorming a number of ideas to attempt to save The Pressroom and Mercantile here at @theboxsf and @theboxsfevents /Vintage! (ON INSTAGRAM) I have been looking at unusual concepts to sell shares of the physical building, crowdfunding, publishing, grants, and products including my idea of @picpocketwearables and finally am considering plain old begging! ?? I am not one to sit still for long, certainly not one to give up easily and for decades have stayed busy, making money from my Creativity. I have not received a paycheck since 1989 and have continually worked as a Designer, Director, Producer, Writer, Photographer and Public Speaker by living a Creative Life and following my passions. ?? For the first time in my life I am stuck, I am working hard to “design” a way out of this pandemic, and to stay true to my passions and creative life! ?? I was up all night last night, with a swirling mind, this morning I found this stunning pen nib and realized that my answers are inside of me, that every time in my life when I have been stuck, I have turned to the tip of my pen, writing, sketching and ideation. I have learned time and again that seeing wider than our blinders often yields a creative solution, inspiration and immense satisfaction. ?? So starting today, I hope to share more of where I am, recognizing fully that The Box SF is worth preserving, the wealth of material inside this box must be saved, and that sharing it with the world, including students, is about more than selling a label, a tin, a poster or book, it is about preservation, history, education and inspiration!!!! ?? For me it is about a creative, memorable, one of a kind experience for anyone who visits us. Above all, it’s about the accessible preservation of our design and printed history worldwide! ?? My hope is that I continue to find the solutions and supporters that agree! ?? If you read this far, thank you for indulging me! Ideas? Call me: 415-602-9500 Video on our Instagrams as noted above! -Mark E.Sackett
