ARTS: One more push for Knight Arts

Someone's making bank off of truck nutz

We've been prodding you all month to sit down and type up the quick, 150-word application for Knight Arts' citywide contest to pour $9 million into the the best project ideas from local creatives. They've been pretty open about their anything-goes acceptance policy, so there's no reason you shouldn't give this a try. You don't have much time to ponder, though. The deadline is tonight at midnight. Once again, here are the rules directly from their site:

1. The idea must be about the arts. 2. The project must take place in or benefit Philadelphia. 3. The grant recipients must find funds to match Knight's commitment.

So come on, hop to it, get that keyboard crackin'. Here's an idea to get your juices flowing: Instead of truck nutz, you could make bike ballz. And every pair that gets sold will benefit some initiative to create more bike lanes around the city. It's good for Philly, it's funny, and I'm sure you could find someone to match the Knight Arts funds. Who wouldn't love a floppy pair of bike balls?
