Artist/Designer Brent Rollins teamed up with NIKE Sportswear to produce a set of silkscreened autographed prints. They were made in conjunction with the annual Robi Reed barbeque in Los Angeles, an event to help raise AIDS awareness within the black community. Guests were not only given the rare opportunity to purchase from the edition of 72 prints for the fundraiser, but also received organic t-shirts in a Rollins customized bag as parting gifts just for attending. A select few were also given access to the Nike Design room where guests custom designed their own Cortez shoes.  The profits from the prints sold went to community programs that propagate AIDS/HIV awareness.  A truly noble cause by one of the freshest hip hop graphic artists around!
