Where will the FrankenToyMobile be next?

Come see the FrankenToyMobile at the following free, public events! You'll find us at parks, libraries, and public spaces across Chicago doing stand alone workshops with neighborhood partners.

Also this year, the FrankenToyMobile is joining forces with the Mobile Street Art Cart and the Mobile Music Box to create the Mobilize Creative Collaborative! These events will have all three of our workshops in the same space so you can make a toy, create a button, screen print on a t-shirt, or make a homemade musical instrument.
