You can make a difference in the next generation of professionals. Art 120 and The Howard School's Career Track Education teachers are partnering up to provide hands-on learning for their students as they work together to produce an event in April. We are looking for professionals from the following industries: hospitality, welding, woodworking, media/broadcasting, culinary arts, digital design, design/build, cosmetology, electrical, and computer engineering. This project will require volunteers to: visit Howard, talk about their profession and the company they work for, and advise on the students' group project. Your time investment can be as little as two hours starting in January and ending in April 2018.

What is an art car or art bike?
This functional form of art is basically a kinetic sculpture aka moveable art on wheels. It can be a car, a bike, or a completely new contraption. An art car can run on fossil fuel as well as greener resources like solar, electric, or even human locomotion. Art cars are created as a way to address social issues, instill community pride, push the limits of technology as well as artistic self-expression.
