blowin fresh breath in the people's face since 2007!!!


Many people get fickled when they see the stamp: "The PepperMint".


They don't know what to expect. Of course any normal person would first think of the candy [not the plant] ... as they continue to sift through web pages and [paper] pages [lol] .
they are either made moderately uncomfortable or are intensely intrigued by our boyish charm and gender ambiguous-sass!

AND ONLY GOD knows how many times we've been labeled as an OCCULT or compared to THE FACTORY. [much love edie sedgewick]
WELL, GET READY! because we are 'bout to make more noise than that old lady in your church unwrapping a piece-a-candy...

put your righteous minds @ rest. We are not a cult. [tho we do burn sage before meditation] We are not a candy company. [but please dont judge us if you see us dancing to an old 50 cent hit]

We are not endorsers or public advocates for the technicolor-david la chapelle shoot-hype williams video extra-zebra stripe and leggings-hipster movement...however, we might be caught rockin patent leather technicolor dreamcoats and rasberry berets!

[i digress] I say all this to say. That we like to consider ourselves messengers. A medium. we shy away from the missionary approach [when infecting subnations and subordinate cultures =) *

The PepperMint Arts Collective's vision is to create. To avail ourselves as an additional voice. volunteering a few more pairs of legs for the movement. and there are countless other analogies that could build upon what is still being built upon as we speak. but I think it's best that we leave this abbreviated vision statement like it is.


Soooo...be on the look out for more from THE "we're not candy. we're not a cult. we're an arts collective -PEPPERMINT ARTS COLLECTIVE"
