The Newport Car Museum is giving car enthusiasts a chance to leave their mark on its newest addition – a Tesla CYBERBEAST. The museum has launched a design challenge, inviting people of all ages to create a custom wrap for this electric vehicle.

The winning design will be featured on the CYBERBEAST, which will be displayed outside the museum and used for promotional events. It’s a unique opportunity for someone to see their creativity rolling around town.

To enter, simply submit your design as a PDF or screenshot to info@newportcarmuseum.org by January 15, 2025. Don’t forget to include your name, hometown, age, and phone number with your entry.

The museum plans to announce the winners by January 31, 2025. The lucky designer will receive a lifetime membership to the Newport Car Museum and bragging rights as the creative mind behind the CYBERBEAST’s new look.

Kids are welcome to join in on the fun too. The museum has a special coloring sheet available for download on their website.

If you want to check out the museum’s current collection, they’re open every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Adult tickets are $20, with discounts for seniors, military, students, and children.
