Happy 2018! We hope you all had restful holidays! 

This is a long-awaited update from us about our Infinite Kickstarter launch. Over the past few weeks we have been working on refining details for the Kickstarter perks tier list to ready it for its launch in the New Year. It’s been a bit of a lengthy process from when we first predicted our launch date, so thank you all for your patience and understanding as we work through our busy schedules to push Infinite into its next big stage.

For now, we’re excited to announce we have finalized our perk tier list for the Kickstarter, and will be launching as soon as our schedules will allow (in the next week or so). We look forward to starting 2018 with a splash, and once again, thank you for supporting us through this journey. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us. Otherwise, stay tuned for upcoming updates!

<sub>We have been making some (minimal) progress over the past few months in spite of of a heavy school workload. So far, we have confirmed all suppliers and most details for the kickstarter, which was originally set to launch for October but will need to get pushed back to around January. The book is almost completely formatted, and all artists have been contacted to confirm their respective layouts.

For the Kickstarter, we're still missing a couple of sticker and shirt designs. If anyone is interested in trying their hand at some, please let us know! Once these designs are complete (this winter), the Kickstarter will be ready to go. Tentatively, the Kickstarter will run from mid-January - February. Unfortunately, they will not be ready for delivery this winter holiday season.</sub>

<sub>Hi everyone, we hope you’ve all been doing well! We just wanted to give an update on what we’ve been up to since our last update.

We have since received all the artwork from our participating artists, and in the past several months, we have been hard at work formatting many of the individual content pages. We’re proud to say that the layouts are close to being done now! In the next few weeks, we’ll be contacting artists to confirm layouts and to proofread what we have.

We are also looking to launch our Kickstarter campaign at the end of June to make this project a reality! All profits will be going towards our cause to help fund libraries in underprivileged communities in rural China through a great organization called OCEF. Please stay tuned for that announcement, as we are so excited to finally get Infinite underway.

Finally, we want to give a huge thank-you for everyone who has been following along our journey, and being so patient. Without you, Infinite would not be where it is today. Looking forward with sharing our next steps with you!</sub>

<sub>Can you believe we're already into the second month of 2017?

We've received so many beautiful pieces of artwork over the winter, every one of them inspiring a new generation of thinkers and explorers.

Currently, we've already begun formatting the layouts of the pages for the artbook. Some of you may have already received some drafts of the pages from us; others are still yet to come in the next few months.

February to April are busy months for both of the organizers, so updates may be sparse. Once again, if you have any questions or if you would like to check up on the progress of the pages, please shoot us an email (infiniteartbook@gmail.com) ! Also, let us know if there are any stories you'd like to share!</sub>
