World Art Drop Day

September 6, 2016

Hide art! Find art! World Art Drop Day is so much fun!

World Art Drop Day – (First Tuesday in September) – September 6, 2016

  • Art Drop Day is the brain-child of Jake Parker of Provo, UT.  His goal was to help people feel a little more connected to one another and to create random bonds between strangers through the act of creating and giving. World Art Drop Day is the first Tuesday in September of every year. This year’s art drop will occur on September 6, 2016.
  • Not an artist? You can participate by watching social media channels and getting out there to find hidden art throughout our great city! Be on the lookout for clues to where you can find artwork such as miniature “Blue Bears” throughout Denver.
  • You can follow along on Denver Arts & Venues’ Facebook page and the World Art Drop Day website. You can also find out where art has been hidden in Denver by searching social media with the hashtag #artdropdenver

For Artists:

  • Make art (sculpture, drawing, doodle, painting, cartoon, etc.)
  • Attach World Art Drop Day info sheet to your artwork
  • Hide/drop the art in the city where you find yourself on September 6
  • Take a photo of the art, or the hiding spot, or a combination of both
  • Post the image, the city it’s dropped in and hints on social media of your choice – use hash tags #artdropday and #artdropdenver
  • Move on and wait for someone to find your artwork – or hang out, watch and make a new friend!
