The world record attempt for the Most
People Contributing to the Same Painting Simultaneously
took place at the Renaissance Centre, located at 405 N. King
St., Wilmington. Sponsoring the event were the Renaissance
Centre LLC and the Commonwealth Group LTD, as well as Golden
Artist Colors Inc.
The guidelines were few. Paint brushes
were a must. No finger painting. Paint for at least three
minutes. The Wilmington skyline was suggested as inspiration.
Participants at the event included DCAD
students and their families, alumni, board members and members
of the Wilmington community. After the attempt, a celebration
was held with music by the band Coco Syn and refreshments.
The previous Guinness world record for the
Most
People Contributing to the Same Painting Simultaneously
was set in 2008 by 152 people in Dusseldorf, Germany.
DCAD
is Delaware’s first and only professional art and design school.
The college offers the Associate of Fine Arts Degree in Animation,
Fine Arts, Graphic Design, Illustration, Interior Design and
Photography.
DCAD was founded in 1997 as a collaborative
effort between two of America’s most distinguished art schools,
Pratt Institute and the Corcoran College of Art + Design.
