William Hessian's 'Art as Treasure' Miniature Art Hunt |
|
Art as treasure art hunts: bring people to the parks and art to the people. As of February 2009 I have finished 12 artwork hunts across America. Inclduing art hunts done in Portland, Oregon; Costa Mesa, California; Jamestown, North Dakota; Minneapolis, Minnesota and Salt Lake City, Utah to name a few. My artwork hunts have been featured in newspapers and news websites from Minneapolis' City Pages to Portland, Oregon's KATU.com and featured on Minnesota's WCCO TV broadcast. I offer the hunt as a service for communities, towns, businesses, art centers, ect. Each individual art hunt typically generates over 10,000 hits per day, to my website. Art hunts can easily be adapted to run parallel with summer festivals, county fairs, or other outdoor activities. The art hunt can also be customized as a one or two day event, or can be an ongoing three week event. Often times each individual artwork is sponsored by local businesses, to help grow the community. I will go anywhere to create a miniature art hunt, as I feel that art should be available to anyone and everyone in the world. I feel gallery walls can turn people away from the joy and excitement of owning original art. I am very willing to bring an art hunt to your community. The cost = $1000 USD, plus travel and accomodations. Each hunt includes 10 original miniature artwork (subject matter of your choosing) and coordination and organization of visual clues, act of hiding and documenting the art, and 24 hour web hosting. Please contact me for more information. Upon request I can provide a full proposal to your city, including project proposal, past success, costs, benefits and details. Bring hidden art to your public parks.  Looking for the 2009 buffalo hunt? click here!
