As artists, we love collaboration. We’d love to feature your art in Black Rock Station.

A Pack of Art

Inside the station, the Dispenso-matic dispenses art to visitors. We’d love to feature your art in the vending machine.

Themes for submitted art might include:

  • Train-themed art
  • References to alternate takes on history
  • Post-apocalyptic supplies (during the Collapse of 2055 to 2065, a pretty bad decade for everyone, worldwide)
  • Your own interesting ideas

If you’d like to submit art to the Black Rock Station Dispenso-Matic 3000, submissions should be in their own self-contained package.

We found that Betsy was way more particular about the size of the packages that would work (too large and they jam up the machine, too small and they, uh, jam up the machine). We have lots of boxes we’re happy to toss your tiny art into. Or if you want to prep the packages they absolutely have to be within these dimensions:

  • Height: from 3″ min. to 3-1/8″ max.
  • Width: from 2″ min. to 2-1/8” max.
  • Depth: from 3/4″ min. to 1″ max.

We had good luck with all of the following boxes:

We will have to receive your ready-made packages by Aug 15 to include them. Ready to start a conversation about this with us?
