illustration rail day 2019

2023 Rail Day

Date & Time

May 3, 2023 @ 8 a.m.

Location

Jannes Library

One of KCAI's most popular events in back for the first time in four years!

Sophomores from Professor Steve Mayse’s Image and Form Exploration class create wacky cars out of cardboard and glue and attempt to ride them down a 80-foot long, 18-inches high rail. The vehicles must withstand the student’s weight and move forward with the help of a team of two or more students for balance. Past examples of these unique vehicles include a giant duck, a hamburger, and a Pac-Man. 

Mini donuts and coffee will be served. Street parking is available.
