Kid Kustoms is collaborating with PPG industries and Wheaty Wheat Studios to bring you completely new medium and international forum to display your talents.
They have invited the world’s best hot rod stripers, street artists, illustrators, air brushers, graphic designers, and cartoonists to compete in one of 3 categories to generate awareness and resources for this year’s charitable organizations. Participation is by invite only.
“What we are doing is the first undertaking of its kind. It blurs the bounds between art mediums, the automotive world, fashion, technology and juvenile product realm. We are practicing the art of science through aesthetic appeal, functional design and thought provoking reason” says Jamie Coblentz, president of Kid Kustoms and Pinstripe Prep.
Five charities were selected to be the beneficiaries for this year’s event. The reason being was to ensure that the participants feel they are contributing to a cause they feel close to. The organizations chosen to be the recipients of the goodwill are: One is Greater than None, UNICEF, Sacred Circle, Action Against Hunger and Conservation International.
