DORK KLUB


Welcome to The Dork Klub

Flatbush, Brooklyn NYC | Est. 2011

More than a brand. A movement. A mindset. A cultural crown.

Born in the vibrant halls of James Madison High School and rooted in the rhythm of FlatbushThe Dork Klub was founded by a fearless teenage visionary named Artyste, a creator who stood out when others sought to blend in.

She didn’t follow trends.
She originated them.
She wore the word “Dork” not as a weakness, but as a badge of brilliance.

To her, a Dork meant being:
Smart. Artistic. Original. Fearlessly authentic.

Our Mission

To think differentlylove loudly, and lead boldly.
We celebrate individuality, intelligence, and imagination.
Every piece we craft is laced with intention—not imitation.

Self-funded. Kommunity-powered. Mission-led.
