MOBILE ART BUS
Common Roots Studio Mobile Art Bus
What?
A renovated bus that is a mobile community arts vehicle. With sponsorship/donations/hired jobs, the bus is able to transport art supplies and “unfold” at local events to provide an arts immersive experience for youth and families!
​
How?
Through a series of renovations and space utilizing techniques, the bus is able to be parked at any local event and provide an array of interactive art projects. The budget ($20,000 is the goal) accounts for every aspect of the mobile unit including construction/modifications, mechanical issues, gas, and art
supplies for a year, etc.
Who?
Who indeed? Common Roots Studio is looking for investors/ donors/local businesses who wish to be a part of a community-based… community-driven art hub.
Why?
To bring arts to the community in a unique and explorative way!
The bus has been painted by the community at Fringefest in downtown Biddeford. With the help of local graffiti artist @DanaNastee’s finished touches, investors and businesses names have been added to the bus advertising for them at
all events!
