Fantasy Job: Community Art Exhibit Owner

Buy/rent a giant warehouse space that has been abandoned and turn it into a community-created art gallery. There would be multiple art themes/installments a year, and the public could come and create something to add to the gallery. For example, have a ginormous room sized water tank and the theme would be to make a boat. You could make a boat and bring it to the pool, or you could pay a small fee/donation to use materials provided by the venue to make your own boat!

Something similar to this was done in the UK in the 90's but it was a one time exhibit.

Wouldn't that be so fun? Each art donation would be photographed, named, and dated, so at the end of the exhibit, makers could come and pick up their "loaned" art pieces.
