Terry I., one of our Assistant Buyers, tipped me off that we had some art works in our meeting rooms that were done by two of our Brand Reps.

This stylistic representation of a sushi bar graces our Four Seasons conference room. It was done by Eric, our Torino Leather Co. and Bugatchi Uomo brand rep. He has a graduate degree in fine arts. Eric has also designed patterns for Kahala, my favorite brand of Aloha shirt!

This warm lakeside painting fits right in the woodsy conference room decorated by our Outdoor team. Rich, our Cutter & Buck brand rep painted this for us. Rich regularly attends the monthly Zappos Golf Tournaments and is one of the funniest reps we have.

Gentlemen, thank you very much for helping make Zappos more attractive!

Last night, myself, the photographer heading up the Gala (Abby), and our assistants set up for our art show. We were cutting wires + strings, twisting, tying, hooking, taping and labeling 41 pieces! Once everything was prepared, they had to be displayed on a table, mannequin or in the air without putting anything on the walls!! Eight glorious hours later we had our beautiful presentation ready for the public.

The Gala is a small representation of what the KY Content Team ( which includes both Photo and Imaging Departments) can create in their spare time. We had submissions ranging from paintings + photographs to three dementional pieces such as sculptures and a handmade designer dress!

Our official show opening was today at 3:30, made complete with catered snacks from Lady Fingers Catering, some jazz music, and the rest of the team joining us. The show was a raging success!!

Our hard work payed off and everyone had a great time. Winners will be announced later this month.



For any KY employees reading, and any Vegas employees visiting Kentucky right now, the show will be open until May 9th, so please swing by the training room and take a look at our creations. All we ask is that you please not touch any of the submitted pieces.

ENJOY!
