The Peter Norton Family Christmas Project is the creation of software entrepreneur Peter Norton. Since 1988 Mr. Norton has commissioned an artist to create an edition (in quantities from 2,500 to 5,000) of sculptural objects or books. These editions are then mailed out to friends and various curators, directors and others in the artworld in lieu of a holiday card.
