When most people think of "art", they think of famous paintings hanging in a museum or oversized sculptures displayed in a gallery. We at Samba Sol see it as the perfect fit to help create a new platform to highlight emerging artists; giving them the opportunity to spread their creations across the world in an unconventional way. This year, we are proud to announce our long-lasting partnership with the National YoungArts Foundation. We hand picked 4 amazing artists to design their own flip flips. In Spring 2018, we will be producing them, selling them and giving a percentage of sales to the artists themselves, as well as donating to the YoungArts Foundation. Here is a highlight of last weeks event!
