talking sculpture, or help us bring art pieces out to Burning Man, or
just keep the lights on.... plus it's tax-deductible.

donate STUFF
We can always use STUFF. On our "Wish List"....
Equipment for Brain Box TV: Newer digital video camera. Photographic lights.
Backdrops. More costumes and props. Frequent-flyer miles to help us go back and interview the EU Commissioners
in Brussels....just missed it last time due to the giant transport strike.
Equipment for Snowflake Village: Many strings of LED Xmas lights. Large gazebo, dome, or carport.
for a public structure. Large tarps. Solar panels. 12-volt florescent lights.
Equipment for the BurningSNOW center: Folding metal chairs. A
scrolling message sign for our building. A scanner/copier/printer/FAX. Reams of
printer paper. A large bulletin
board.
Equipment for the Milwaukee Art-car: We are looking for a
donation of a used van, panel
truck, or school bus to make into a combination transport vehicle and
"Bookmobile for the experimental arts" to bring to schools and events and
public places. We
will cover it with animated electro-luminescent images, and fill it with
experimental art pieces.
Equipment for our Journey to Burning Man: Prepaid gas cards. Motel or
campground vouchers. Bags of trail mix. Food coupons. A CB radio. It costs
a lot to bring art pieces from the Midwest to the Nevada desert.
---Whatever you donate, we can probably use it for something!

Web Design and Maintenance
