As part of the Spotlight on the Arts festival, City of Fairfax residents will be asked to turn their front yards, balconies and neighborhoods into a drive-by art gallery.
From April 23 – May 9 residents of Fairfax will be able to create art displays in their front yard. The displays can be made of whatever they like. Create a sculpture out of recycling for the week, turn the driveway into a work of art with sidewalk chalk, or buy some plywood and paint a mural! The options are endless.
If the art work will be sensitive to the weather, the Drive by Day for the Neighborhood Art Celebration will be May 1 (Rain date May 2). There will be a Google map for residents to sign their houses up to be a part of the gallery.
Rules
Artwork must be visible from the street. Should not exceed 6’ wide or 6’ tall, or block views of turns and the road for passing motorists.
- Artwork can be created by as many members of the household as would like to participate.
- All ages welcome!
- Artwork may be displayed from April 23 – May 9.
- Artwork may NOT contain obscene, inappropriate, or defamatory words or images.
Mosby Woods has requested a limited number of art kids. Please reach out to Chris Bowles (cjbowl@gmail.com) to request a kit that will include a 2×4’ piece of plywood, a can of Chalkboard paint, and rainbow chalk to create your own chalk board. Supplies are limited.
