Outsider Collective is excited to extend an invitation to you for a truly unique and artistic event – “The Art Car Derby”! This event promises to be an unforgettable celebration of creativity and collaboration, and wethey would be honored to have you join them.

“The Art Car Derby” is the culmination of a summer-long collaboration between Outsider Collective and RISD Industrial Design Professors, students, and other working artists made possible by the Fogarty Foundation. Throughout this journey, we have focused on the design process, encompassing drawing, making iterations, prototyping, and ultimately crafting the magnificent pinewood cars that will race down our one-of-a-kind art installation track.

What makes this event truly special is not just the race itself but the entire journey leading up to it. Each pinewood car is a work of art in its own right, a testament to the dedication, creativity, and collaborative spirit of the artists involved. The track itself is not just a racecourse; it’s a stunning art installation.

In between the races and judging we have a treat for your ears as well. “The Same Thing Project” and the “Outsider Percussion Ensemble” will be gracing us with their musical talents. The performance will add another layer of artistic collaboration to this event.

“The Art Car Derby” is more than just a race; it’s a celebration of artists of all abilities coming together to create something truly extraordinary. It’s a testament to the power of collaboration, the beauty of art, and the joy of creativity.
