Golf Cart Art · RECESS Lawrence

Golf cart art.

There's a golf cart parked out front of RECESS Lawrence, and every few months a local artist transforms it into something new. Paint, crochet, welded metal, whatever their medium is. Take a selfie with it, tag us, and we donate to the nonprofit they're riding for.

Photo. Tag. Post.

Every tagged post you share turns into a donation from RECESS to this rotation's nonprofit.

Tag all three

Tag RECESS Lawrence, the artist, and the nonprofit of the moment so we can count it. All three tags are what makes it register.

Post it anywhere

Instagram, Facebook, wherever you already post. Public posts and stories both count toward the total.

Any platform

We donate

We tally the tagged posts and cut a check at the end of the rotation. Then a new artist, a new medium, and a new cause take over.
