Dear Center for Art & Design Family -
We are very excited to announce Tom Santelli's first book of photography, a unique
collection of images from his early days as a photographer in NYC, which is currently
available for pre-order and will arrive in stores in June 2026! Tom and his team have
worked very hard this past year processing photos, designing layouts, and editing
text, and we can’t wait for you to see the finished book.

As part of our wind up to the finish line, we want to make you
aware of several ways you can be a part of this launch.

FIRST...
GOFUNDME! A group of friends have put together a GOFUNDME to help Tom cover some of
his book production expenses. LINK: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-publish-coney-island-ink-by-thomas-santelli

Here is the GOFUNDME deal:
• The first 25 people who can donate $100.00 or more will receive a signed copy of the book.

Everyone who donates will receive:
• A personal note from Tom
• Updates and insights about the book
• Notifications about all book events

SECOND... PRE-ORDER! PRE-ORDER! PRE-ORDER!
If a donation is not possible - don't worry. You can still help support the book.
• Pre-order a copy of the book by searching for Coney Island Ink at https://bookshop.org/ (to support independent bookstores), Barnes and Noble, Amazon.com or better yet - from your local independent bookstore.

• Head over to Tom's website - https://www.tomsantelliphotography.com to learn more about the book, the team, the contributors, and the production. Also sign up on the contact page to receive email notifications about upcoming events.

• Connect with Tom on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-santelli-01aa00379/
Instagram: TomSantelliPhotography https://www.instagram.com/tomsantelliphotography/

• Spread the word! Let your friends know.
