Newport Car Museum announces Tesla CYBERBEAST Design Challenge
The Newport Car Museum in Portsmouth, R.I. is asking fans to share their vision of a custom wrap for its newly acquired Tesla CYBERBEAST, which will be displayed outside the Museum and used for promotional purposes.
Contest rules say to “create something new or find an existing design†and send a PDF or screenshot of it to [email protected] by January 15, 2025. All ages can participate, with kids encouraged to download a coloring sheet from the Museum’s website. Entries must include a name, hometown, age, and phone number. Winners will be chosen by January 31, 2025.
If the Museum chooses a submitted idea, the creator will become a life-long member of the Newport Car Museum, not to mention the VIP artist whose work will be admired by tens of thousands visiting the Museum each year.
“Currently, our CYBERBEAST is a stainless-steel canvas waiting for color,†said the Museum’s Head Docent Vincent Moretti. “Its futuristic wedge-shaped design is pretty imposing, so people tend to either love it or hate it, but certainly it’s a curiosity that now fits into the history of the automobile.†(The Newport Car Museum’s private collection covers eight decades of modern automotive design starting with the 1950s and finishing with new models from the 21st Century.)
