Art-o-mat at VSA Colorado/Access Gallery - Denver, CO - Art*o*mats on Waymarking.com

Colorado's first (and currently only) Art-o-mat arrived at the Very Special Arts Colorado/Access Gallery on August 19, 2011. The former cigarette vending machine now dispenses pocket sized art pieces. The machine supports VSA Colorado which assists young artists with disabilities. According to the gallery, "teens with disabilities in our Artworks program created their first editions for the Art-O-Mat machine. Each teen learned about simple economics, how to create sellable art and each will earn from the sale of the pieces. So not only can you buy an original piece of art for $5.00 you help a teen gain job skills."

The top row of the Art-o-mat supports artists from VSA Colorado's Artworks program and the bottom row features works from local and nationally known artists. The machine was decorated by Hieronymus, an LA graffiti artist.
