You might remember that in late November I was awarded an art grant to make a light-up sculptural art pyramid. One of the requirements of the grant was to debut the art piece at a new kind of drive-thru event:

ARTic Expedition will be taking place February 12-14 on Valkyrie Ranch in Paige (about an hour drive from Austin). You can find more information and purchase tickets at https://articexpedition.org/

This is an experimental event (we are hoping to learn from this smaller event so that we can do better, larger ones in the future). What that means is that there are only a small number of art projects participating. This says nothing about the quality of the work, and I expect there will be some really fun stuff, there just won’t be a lot of it.

If you don’t mind the drive to Paige, this could be a fun way to get out of the house and support the local arts community. But, if you’d rather not make the drive this time, don’t worry because I’m sure we’ll do this again and it will be even better!

There will be some effigies that will be burned at the end of the event on Sunday night, but without an in-person audience. Instead, they will be live-streaming the burn for free (no ticket required). I don’t have a link for that yet but I expect they’ll post it on the Facebook event: https://fb.me/e/12UPUVXEq

I will be sharing photos of the event after installation on Thursday, February 11, so watch my Facebook and Instagram accounts to get a virtual tour of the art (no drive required!).
