Robots served beer, painted paintings and even a disgruntled beggar robot will is on display, so expect robotic diversity to be a cornerstone of this art show. 
A presentation on the history of robotics by Frank Garvey was shown at 6pm, along with spin the robot raffle prizes and free robotic magazines. ( The premier raffle prize will be a cool robot toy from Boss Robots & a visit to ANYBOTS to spend time with Dexter & Monty in thier own natural setting)  
This event will encompass a diverse group of robotic artists including mixed media, painters and kinetic artists. The contest will be 100% violence free, and will focus on form, function, and fun. Prizes will be given for categories such as overall artistic esthetics, unusual functionality, robots as a reflection of society, and incorporation of unusual objects to name a few.  
Judging the robotic art will be, Monty the first humanoid robot of its kind along with Trevor Blackwell, Ph.D. Founder and CEO of ANYBOTS and David Calkins, President of the Robotics Society of America, and founder of the international RoboGames www.Anybots.com, http://robogames.net/index.php
