The Racine Art Museum is challenging local artists with a new medium this Easter ... Peeps!
Artists of all ages are invited to enter artwork inspired by the marshmallow delicacies by 5 p.m. on Friday, March 26. There's no entry fee, and fun prizes will be awarded to entries based on creativity and the best use of Peeps. Artists can use any variety of Peeps.
Works will be displayed at RAM during Easter week. Entries will not be returned. All artwork should be submitted with a super brief description or title for your entry, the names of everyone who worked on the project and their ages, and a contact email address.
Now get going artists! Maybe you could create a sculpture of a bunny Peep playing a pipe and leading a line of rats. Title? The Pied Peeper.
Or you could hollow out the bellies of a bunch of Peeps, line them up in a row so you can see through them all. When you look through them, you'd see a Peep in a bathtub. Can you guess the title? Yup, Peephole.
Alright, those are terrible ideas ... come up with better ones and get your entries into RAM! Good luck to all!
Cute idea.
ReplyDeleteIt's innocent, innocuous and non-elitist. In short, the "Peep" art competition sounds like fun for the entire community. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteLove it! The kids will too! Place a peep crown on the head of the artiste who came up with this one.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean "non-elitest"? There are some that can't afford peeps, nor do they have the means to travel to the downtown area and it is all the fault of a certain family in Racine...who am I kidding...I can't sink to Mr. Angry's level.
ReplyDeleteEarly April Fools joke.
Looks like fun.
7:01 :)
ReplyDeletea smile for you
Dear 7:01 AM, I wouldn't be so severe with "Mister Angry" if I were you. Judging by the response to his comments in my neighborhood, he's just saying what many victims of our crass economic system think but dare not state openly for fear of job loss or other sanctions. As for hatred of an arrogant plutocratic clan responsible for most of the misery in Racine, it's pandemic. God help the bloated billionaires if our rank-and-file residents finally demand true social equality. Those who have won too big and lived too large at the expense of the rest shall forfeit all.
ReplyDelete10:21 - you are one of the two Mr. Angry's out here. Once again, go away. We don't and will not ever care what you have to say - you miserable, depressing person.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm NOT your "Mr. Angry." Furthermore, I haven't a clue as to his identity. Nevertheless, I concur with his ideas anent corporate capitalism and the crime family which should be held culpable for the misery running rampant in Racine. I eagerly work toward the day when those who've won too big and lived too large at the expense of the rest lose everything. The thought of deposed Waxspawn and other ex-oligarchs standing in line for government assistance warms my heart.
ReplyDeleteCan't you hear the formerly-formidable blight trash whimpering while they spell their once-notorious name for the government clerks?
ReplyDeleteOn a non-political note, enjoy the "Peeps"! In my neighborhood, everyone regardless of color or creed liked them. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteMr. Angry - You are a "peep."
ReplyDeleteDear 12:18 PM, Yes, I can imagine the Waxcreeps bleating "J-O-H-N-S-O-N" to a government official. Blah, blah Waxcreeps,/ have you any wool/to pull o'er the people's eyes?/ Now your sack's not full./ Feds came to the compound/ and seized golden fleece./At last all your victims/ shall receive a piece.
ReplyDeleteMr. Angry - You are a "peep".
ReplyDeleteDear 12:58 PM, No, I'm a rooster whose crowing announces a new, counter-capitalist dawn.
ReplyDelete"peep" "peep" - loser.
ReplyDeleteHistory and the future shall decide who'll emerge victorious from the class clash.
ReplyDeleteHa, ha, ha - Mr. Angry you are so comical - loser.
ReplyDeleteHey - maybe we can call you Mr. Peepers instead - ha!
ReplyDeleteHe who laughs last, laughs best!
ReplyDeleteWill children be allowed to visit the "Peep Show"? HA!
ReplyDeleteWe don't know who Mr. Angry is or isn't. Even so, bring some chicks and we'll be there.
