They all also work as art handling professionals at the famous Seattle company Artech. Founded in 1977 by a group of artists, Artech has become the region's premier art handling and collection management company. Artech regularly helps with the art installations at local museums, public spaces, and private collections.

Today, Artech still employs many artists, and in 2009, the well known Seattle art supporter and collector, Bagley Wright, honored the artists with an exhibit at his own gallery, The Wright Exhibition Center.
