Question 1

Is there a fee to participate?

Accepted Answer

Nope. No fees for the artist and or the “Drivers”. This is completely FREE community experience for everyone. However, we do ask the Drivers to donate directly to the participating artists.

Question 2

When will the map be available?

Accepted Answer

The National Arts Drive map will be available to the public and artists on "Drive Day", Saturday, June 20, 2020. However, you can view a screenshot on our locations tab that is updated frequently.

Question 3

Can any artist participate?

Accepted Answer

YES! We welcome all mediums and any creative genre to join the movement.

Question 4

Will my address be listed on the website?

Accepted Answer

No. However, there will be a map marker indicating your location so Drivers can find your showcase space. 
 
If you’d like to keep your anonymity you may consider showcasing in front of a local business (open and/or shuttered) with the business owner's permission. Bare in mind location-specific safety guidelines.
 
Contact us if you'd like to use the materials we have available to request space from a local business.

Question 5

I don’t have space to showcase/perform at my residence, can I still participate?"

Accepted Answer

Yes! You’ll just need to get creative! Consider space in front of a local business (open and/or shuttered) only with the business owner's permission. Or, perhaps consider a local friend or family member's residence that hosts a driveway, front lawn, and/or other private property.

Question 6

Can I sell artwork or items?

Accepted Answer

No, not exactly. We’re asking that no products and/or hand-to-hand transactions take place. If you include a link to your online store on your map marker profile Drivers can be encouraged to make purchases there from a safe distance.

Question 7

Can I bike, walk or scooter through The National Arts Drive?"
