Build A Soapbox Derby Car
The Kingston Artist Soapbox Derby is a parade of non-motorized kinetic sculptures capable of rolling down lower Broadway in the Rondout neighborhood of Kingston, NY. It brings professional artists, the creative, families and friends together to show off their wild, wacky, and original soapbox creations.
Youth can come join the fun in a week-long class leading up to the derby. They'll be part of the team that will design and build our wooden float from scratch, while learning woodworking and mechanical skills along the way. No prior experience is required and anyone from age 11 up can join.
Stay tuned for dates for the August 2026 class!
