Quarantine Cardboard Challenge


  • 1 School Street Pittsfield, MA, 01201 United States (map)

Looking for something creative and fun to do during your quarantine?

Do you remember the incredible video about Caine's Arcade? Caine is an imaginative young human who built an entire functioning arcade entirely of cardboard — woah!

IS183 Art School now challenges YOU to test your creativity, flex your imagination, and see what you can build in IS183's Quarantine Cardboard Challenge! Enter your creation for a chance to win a free class at IS183! Details below.

NEED CARDBOARD?

IS183 has a huge supply of quality cardboard, perfect for your construction needs, available on a first-come, first-served basis. We invite you to come by 1 School St. in Pittsfield (right around the corner from the Onota Building at 74 North St.) this Sunday, May 3rd, from 11am-3pm to take as much cardboard as you need for your creations — only while supplies last!

NEED INSPIRATION?

Check out IS183's Cardboard Construction Board on Pinterest for lots of fun starter ideas of what you can build — the sky's the limit!

CREATIONS DUE MAY 11

Complete your cardboard masterpiece and email a fabulous photo to brielle@is183.org by May 11. Submitted creations will be assessed by a panel of judges and entered to win the grand prize — a free class at IS183 Art School!
