So You Think You Can Sculpt?

The Davis Art Center, in partnership with Roseville-based non-profit reCREATE, inaugurated a new FREE family-friendly event in Fall 2009 that celebrated California Arts Day while promoting recycling and encouraging creative artistry. The 2nd Annual Junk 2 Genius Team Art Competition will be held on September 10, 2010.

For Junk 2 Genius, teams of artisan gladiators compete for the coveted “Trophy du Trash” in a timed “sculpt-off” using recycled materials.  Each team receives a box of similar items and races aganst the clock to create its own unique work of art.  When the closing bell sounds, a panel of judges critiques the final green giants and names the winning team.

The festivities also include art projects for kids using a variety of cast-off materials, food, beer, wine and music!  

This year, the judges are metal sculptor Terrence Martin and Jenel Hagemann & Bruce Lippstreu of Car Part Art.
