ART BLIMPS
We're putting your artwork on blimps and flying them across California and Nevada.
This summer, we're producing a limited series of helium blimps wrapped in original artwork — and flying them across striking natural backdrops in California and Nevada.
We are also planning to bring these "art blimps" to Burning Man (if that's ok with you).
We're doing this to spark the childlike joy and wonder that blimps always bring. Ben and Albie believe the sky is a newly accessible frontier for creativity. If you see the sky as an exciting canvas and are excited to work with blimps as a medium, we'd love to hear from you.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
We're looking for artists who see the sky as a new canvas — muralists, illustrators, digital artists, 3D designers, painters, and dreamers who want to take their work to unexpected places.
You don’t need a finished concept to apply — just a strong visual identity and an idea you're excited to explore. Whether it's a piece you've already made or something you'd like to adapt for a flying form, we’d love to hear from you.
SELECTED ARTISTS WILL RECEIVE
- Your artwork printed, wrapped, and flown on a large-scale blimp
- Professional photos and video footage of your blimp in the sky
- Creative support from our team to adapt your piece to 3D blimp form
- The opportunity to join us for a sky art tour across the West
- If needed, a stipend to help cover time or material costs
