Facebook group: Euphoria & Alchemy Artists
The purpose of the Art Team is to empower community members to achieve their artistic vision through logistical support as well as funding via the online art fundraiser. The Art Team works with artists on tasks like making budgets, promoting themselves and their vision, and connecting them with the resources they need. The Art Team is here to help artists develop many of the administrative and networking skills necessary to undertake an art project of any scale. In short: Do you love art, and want to help make it happen? The Art Team just might be for you! No, you don't have to identify as an artist, yourself.
We will be posting a map of placed art at Connexus for reference as well as bringing on volunteers as Art Heralders whose job it will be to run around the burn to promote checking out art and participating in the Art Scavenger Hunt. The Art Scavenger Hunt will consist of neat and tiny SWAG found in a number of hidden spots near placed art this year. On both Friday and Saturday we will also be leading tours to showcase the Art throughout the burn while providing keen and exciting backstories and history lectures of how this art came to fruition.
