Rondout Business Association
The next raciest artistic event in Kingston is scheduled for
this summer on Sunday, August 22, 2010 at 1:00pm when
the 16th Annual Artists’ Soapbox Derby careens inexorably
down Broadway towards the Rondout Creek.

This eclectic event is presented by Donskoj & Company
Gallery and the City of Kingston and is featuring cash
prizes for our first, second and third place finishes in both
the youth, family group and adult divisions. Judging is
based on a combined score of creativity and engineering.

This is not a race.  The first year’s event in 1995 attracted
over 500 spectators for eight entries; while last
year’s event drew over 8,000 spectators for 42 entries.
This year’s event should prove to be even better than
ever as there is plenty of momentum. And remember, it is
all down hill from here!
