Wizard of Oz Art Hunt in Costa Mesa

The miniature mustang art hunt returns to Costa Mesa this year with the theme of Wizard of Oz! This weekend (October 20th-21st, 2012) the entire community is invited to go a hunt for tiny little paintings created by William Hessian, aka Mr. Art Hunt.

WINNERS GET TO KEEP THE ART! Ten brightly colored and hand drawn miniature Wizard of Oz artworks will be hidden in the public parks of Costa Mesa, California. The hunt is open to the public and everyone is invited to seek out your local parks and search for these tiny treasures. Each artwork is 1 and a half inches by 1 and a half inches square. The first of daily visual photo clues will be posted on October 20th-21st to help aide those in the search for original Art. All winners and art hunters are invited to send in pictures to be added to the website.

Visit the Wizard of Oz webpage to see rules and photo galleries as they appear during and after the art hunt. Join in the fun!
