Good Morning,

The Palo Alto Art Center will be “on the road” during 2011 due to a planned building renovation and we have secured the funding to purchase an art bus to continue our programs during the building closure. I have been charged with researching current mobile art programs and am hoping that my fellow museum professionals will be able to aid me in my research.

If your organization has a mobile art program would you kindly take a few minutes and answer the questions listed below?  Also, if you know of any similar art bus programs or other resources that might be helpful I would love to hear about them.

Many thanks in advance for the assistance!

Art Bus/Art Mobile Questions:

1)       What is the primary purpose of your Art bus?
2)       How long have you had the Art bus program?
3)       What challenges has this program presented for your organization?
4)       What types of opportunities has the program offered?
5)       Where did you purchase your bus?
6)       Did you retrofit the bus? What did that process entail?
7)       Do you know of any other mobile art programs in the US and do you have contact information for those programs?


Best regards,
