I am pleased to announce the launch of Virtuarte.com. The site allows artists from Africa, South America, and Asia to sell their art worldwide. These pieces of art are expressions of traditions and customs that, in some places, are at risk of slowly dying out. A goal of the site is to revive these traditional arts. The founder of Virtuarte, Deborah E. Myers, came from an international development background and founded the site out of a desire to improve the economic quality of life for women and children.

Joint Concepts, a local justice oriented multimedia firm, managed the development of the site. My company, Inner File Software, was brought in to assist with the final details before launch. The project was nearly complete and we essentially just lent our Drupal expertise to help tidy things up for launch. The launch was flawless and Joint Concepts was a pleasure to work with.
