AVAM's 2010 Kinetic Sculpture Race!
For the Glory!
To make a General Donation to this year's Kinetic Sculpture Race, just visit the "Make a Contribution" box below.

To add yourself as a race fundraiser and/or to add your Team (e.g. The Shrimptastics!), go to the fundraising bar at the very top of this page. And THANK YOU!

The Race simply could not go on without your support.

Your donations underwrite the myriad expenses associated with mobilizing - in a semi-organized fashion - unusual, human powered works of art, scores of volunteers wielding Chicken Sticks, the required City Services like the amazing motorcycle-mounted Police Officers and the pothole-fixin' Dept of Public Works, Tyvek-suited mud and sand-doctors, a flotilla of harbor-savvy safety-oriented seamen and seawomen, and more!

ABOUT THE RACE: From the American Visionary Art Museum—A race of wacky, imaginative, totally human-powered works of art designed to travel on land, through mud, and over deep Harbor waters constructed out of used bicycles, gears, and parts, created by a lunatic genius who tinkers around in the garage or backyard (Do you know this person?) The machines can be simple, small crafts, piloted by only one brave soul, or they can be over 50 feet long, extremely well-engineered, sophisticated vehicles powered by a team of pilots. Pilots (Kinetinauts) compete for the most coveted Mediocre Award (finishes right in the middle) and the highly prized Next-to-the-Last Award (finishes, well, next to last) and serious prizes including Art and Engineering. Scheduled to take place on Saturday, May 1, 2010. Have you got The Right Stuff? Now searching for Kinetinauts, pit crew, artists, engineers, volunteers, teacher + student teams, and TEAM SPONSORS.
