My Modern Met Celebrates Turning 10 Years Old

My Modern Met was formed in May 2008 to create one big city that celebrates creativity. This month, we celebrate turning ten years old.

Looking back, every year posed its own challenges. But with every obstacle, we also experienced incredible successes and triumphs. One of the most crucial elements was the relationships we formed with talented artists who are on the pulse of contemporary art. We've always believed that the very best artists continuously push the boundaries of how we think and, often times, the message in their artworks are more powerful than words could ever be.

One thing that hasn't changed from the very beginning has been our mission to create a positive culture through the arts. Our passion for cultivating this type of environment has only strengthened throughout the years and we believe it is our responsibility to continue moving forward with this conscientious approach in mind.

As nostalgic as it is to look back, it's even more exciting to look forward. Our intent is to continue innovating—striving to bring you the very best art+culture content around the world.

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for supporting us over the past decade and allowing us to engage with you in a meaningful way. And a big heartfelt thank you to all the artists who have collaborated with us over the years. While every story means something significant to us, here are a select handful of talented creators who have not only shared their incredible artworks with us, they've helped us define who we are and what we aspire to be.

My Modern Met Store: Creative Products From Today’s Best Contemporary Artists and Makers

My Modern Met Store Launch Art Products

My Modern Met was founded in May 2008 to create one big city that celebrates creativity. Since then, our website has evolved to become one of the top art+culture websites in the world, currently reaching 3 million viewers per month.

Over the last nine years, we've featured countless creative products that have gone viral around the web. Items like Shovava's beautifully patterned bird scarves, Talia Sari's gorgeously designed city-themed necklaces, and Clemens Habicht's striking 1000 Colours Jigsaw Puzzle. We're often asked by our viewers where they can buy items that they've seen on our site.

Now, with the opening of My Modern Met Store, we're excited to announce that we'll be able to serve you directly.

Along with providing our viewers with fun, creative, and clever gifts, we're excited to create a marketplace for artists to sell their products and bolster their careers. We hope that this encourages them to create even more amazing artwork.

We're starting out with a handful of products from some of our favorite artists and makers, however, our intention is to grow this carefully curated collection over time.

Located in sunny Southern California, you can trust that everything will be handled in-house by our team. We are committed to providing excellent quality products and service, so we'll be handling everything from start to finish, including inventory, boxing, shipping, and customer service. Everyone around the world can participate, as we'll be shipping internationally, with a few exceptions.

To further our commitment to supporting the arts, a small portion of our proceeds will be donated to a different cause every year, with the common theme of making art more accessible to underprivileged children and adults around the world. If you'd like to submit a foundation or charity, please email us at store@mymodernmet.com and we'll definitely look into it.

On behalf of our team, thank you for your continued support over the years. We'll make every effort to provide you with excellent customer service, while our mission of promoting a positive culture through the arts remains deeply at our core.
