We were invited to the Black History Month event at our local Ben Robertson Community Center on February 7th. This event featured an art gallery with local artists including our very own Creative Director Carlos Perez. They also hosted performances, local Black businesses, and local schools to bring the community together. 

We had wonderful time meeting members of our community and local artists and bringing Lung Girl to them. Thank you for the support!

Take a look at his video to see how it went:

WhatNot Fundraiser

5/29/2025

0 Comments

 
On Wednesday, May 28th, Prime Vice Studios went live on WhatNot for the first time to raise funds for The Sid Foundation at the Syndicate Comics & Collectibles comic shop. 

We began streaming without scheduling a show ahead of time just to test out WhatNot and learn how it works. The response from the WhatNot community was way bigger than we could have imagined!
We began the #commissionsforacause livestream at 2pm. About 3 hours later, we raised over $200!

A huge thank you to Syndicate Comics & Collectibles for the space and support. Thank you to everyone that stopped by and commissioned us on WhatNot. We received a warm welcome into this new community. 
We’ll be doing more fundraisers on WhatNot soon and will be scheduling shows ahead of time so you can plan to be there.
