Midway, Neshoba County Fair, Philadelphia, Mississippi by Mike Sinclair	Las Vegas, Nevada, November 2000 by Mike Sinclair

We have just three words for you: 1) mobile 2) truck 3) galleries.

Sufficiently curious? Great. We'd love to tell you more about this novel new outlet for collaboration between American artists—it's called America: Now and Here. Essentially, visual artists, musicians, filmmakers, playwrights, poets and others will team up to share their art across state lines. And their vehicle for doing this? Well, it just so happens that it literally is a vehicle. Actually, multiple vehicles. A convoy of trucks, to be exact, will travel together to eight different regions of the country and set up camp, aka installations.

"When the custom-designed mobile truck galleries arrive at a location, they will link together to create a spectacular exhibition and event space," the ANH site elaborates. Once fully set up in their pre-determined location, they will boast:

-3,300 total sq ft exhibition space
-4,400 total sq ft plaza, pavilion and event space
-One outdoor screening area for movies
-Over 60 works of visual art
-One multi-media presentation of the renga
-16 listening stations for music
-Actors performing scenes and monologues live
-Open space for public programs and displays
-Activity space for youth engagement
-Gift shop and retail space

So now you're probably wondering how you can experience this multi-dimensional, mobile art exhibition, right? The journey began in Kansas City, Missouri (the hometown of our very own Mike Sinclair, who will be participating) on May 6th and will remain until May 28th, followed by Detroit and Chicago. As the tour continues, upcoming locations will be updated on the ANH site.

America: Now and Here offers people all over the country the opportunity to engage with artists of every variety in a space outside of the conventional museum, gallery or theater. Be sure to check out the exhibition when it rolls into a town near you.

And because ANH kicked off in Mike Sinclair's stomping grounds, we're offering 11"x14" prints of his Midway, Neshoba County Fair, Philadelphia, Mississippi and Las Vegas, Nevada, November 2000 for just $30 until 8 p.m. ET as this week's Friday Flash.
