ArtHONK!
ArtHONK! formerly known as Elm Street Interactive Area
Saturday, October 10 1-5pm
We’re closing Elm Street to cars and turning it into a dynamic arena for interactive art making and activism. Please join in — work with our amazing HONK! artists to create something for yourself or for the Sunday Parade. Learn about some urgent issues with the grass roots volunteers and organizers working on community issues. Help amplify messages for positive change and activist causes with art!
ArtHONK! intro
The ArtHONK! has the same mission as Honk! – take over the streets and advocate for issues that will benefit the community. Instead of music, ArtHONK! uses art to advocate for causes.
ArtHONK! includes installations and hands-on activities for all those passing by. It is a chance for local artists and activist and community groups to share with the general public their ideas, concerns, images, words, creations, and strategies for a better world.
We seeks artists, activists, and activist groups to send in their application to be included in ArtHONK! 2026, the form to submit proposal is here: https://forms.gle/UdKEacc2pRAh4QTCA
