Preregister Your Art Car in 2 Simple Steps

  1. Complete the preregistration form
  2. Upload your Art Car photos

ART CAR Criteria: To be eligible for an ART CAR vehicle license, your vehicle must meet ALL of the following requirements:

Minimum ART Level

If a stock vehicle has been modified, it must be difficult to distinguish from the original appearance. Personal golf carts, even if rented, must meet this standard. Vehicles that have been stripped down to the frame and engine, or that have only been ornamented with temporary decorations, are not considered Art Cars and will be asked to park in the parking lot for the entire duration of the event.

If the ease of personal mobility is your major goal, please reconsider! Attendees can walk around the whole perimeter of Immersjawn in a reasonable amount of time. The only reason for bringing a vehicle should be sharing your imaginative creation with the rest of the community.
