FAQ

Here are answers to frequently asked questions. If you’re question isn’t answered here, just email us at artbuggy@gmail.com

Q: I have no mechanical or building skills, I can't build a buggy!

Sure you can. Most of the buggys are pretty lowtech. A buggy can be anything with wheels... a skateboard, mop bucket, etc. For example, take a look at what people did last year.  

Q: Can my buggy draw its art on the ground?

Def no. Buggys are not to deface the park in any way.

Q: Are you putting paper down around the fountain (AKA the race track)?

No way - this is part of the challenge, your buggy should not make marks that are left on the park grounds but rather on a "canvas" that is part of your buggy. 

Q: Can I use a bike for my buggy?

Yes, as long as it’s powered by human feet (as opposed to gas).  But dont forget judges will tend to award more points for originality.

Q: Can my buggy make sound instead of physical art?

A: Buggys need to produce something tangible that you can show to the judges and the crowd. If you’re buggy also makes sound… (bonus points).
