ArtCars at Streetscapes: A Street Painting FestivalSaturday, September 24th & Sunday, September 25th
on Telford Ave. in the Clifton Gaslight District


For the third year in a row, ArtWorks will be creating a “Museum of the Streets” by painting and then unleashing ArtCars into the streets of Greater Cincinnati.
ArtCars is a part of StreetScapes: A Street Painting Festival, an annual festival in which masterpieces are transposed onto the sidewalks of Clifton’s Gaslight District. With ArtCars, instead of the sidewalks getting painted, cars get painted!

This year, 5 Lead Artists and 20 Apprentice Artists will be working together to turn 5 cars into canvases for master works of art. A Toyota van will be covered in an Alphonse Mucha, a Volkswagen bus will become an impressionist landscape, and a Toyota Corolla will roam the streets as a mobile Andy Warhol.

The Corolla will be auctioned off in a silent auction during StreetScapes. Click here to learn more about making it yours!

Stop by StreetScapes to see the artists at work, bid on the car, and see the final masterpieces!

Above is the invite to the ArtCars event that I will be participating in. Please come out to check it out. I will be painting the Warhol car that will be up for auction. My friend Mychal Fox will also be out with me all weekend to capture the event on video...should be good times.

  1. Looks like it will turn out to be pretty cool. Can't wait to see it when it's complete.

    Cheers
