Minted and The Metropolitan Museum of Art Launch

Minted announced a collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art to reimagine classic works of art as contemporary holiday card and greeting card designs

Minted announced a collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Eleven of Minted’s independent artists created holiday card and greeting card designs inspired by works of art from The Met collection. A portion of every purchase will support The Met, which recently reopened its doors to the public, as well as the independent artists from Minted’s community who created the designs.

Clockwise from top: “Silk Animal Carpet” by Angel Walker, “Appliqué Floral” by Rachel Nanfelt, and “Emerald Vines” by Susan Moyal.

The Minted x The Met collection consists of 12 holiday cards and eight greeting cards by 11 artists from Minted’s community: Brandy Brown, Karly Depew, Amy Ehmann, Tina Furjanic, Petra Kern, Angela Marzuki, Susan Moyal, Rachel Nanfelt, Angel Walker, Lori Wemple, and Jennifer Wick. The Minted artists have drawn inspiration from works in The Met’s collection, ranging in medium from tapestry to stained glass, and reimagined them as contemporary designs. Each holiday card and greeting card includes a message about the Museum’s mission, the work of art that served as inspiration, and the independent artist who designed it. Customers may personalize the holiday cards with their own text and photos.

Minted x The Met collection is available for purchase at The Met’s flagship store at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City or online at store.metmuseum.org and minted.com/met. A portion of every purchase will support the independent artist who designed the holiday card and the museum’s collection, study, conservation and presentation of 5,000 years of art.
