Artists get donkey-punched by DNC

PoconoRecord: “Caryn Kunkle is off the deep end,” sighed former Gov. Ed Rendell, head of the Democratic National Convention host committee. He was reacting to accusations by Kunkle, CEO of the arts advocacy site ArtJawn.com, that the artists who painted the DNC donkeys were misled in their contracts.

Fifty-seven fiberglass donkeys have romped around Philadelphia since July 1, each representing a state or territory. The initiative, Rendell’s brainchild, was funded by the host committee. ArtJawn and the Mural Arts Program sorted through applications.

On Wednesday, Rendell announced that only four of the donkeys remained, with the rest claimed by their delegations. The remaining sculptures will be auctioned off on ArtJawn.com; 60 percent of profits will be shared among the artists, with the rest going to ArtJawn. But four donkeys isn’t very many, and some artists were hoping for more of a payday.

On Thursday, Kunkle sent an email to the media, copying all artists who worked on the project. According to Kunkle, participants understood that all the donkeys would be sold for profit, and that they would receive cuts on top of the $1,000 each was paid for 60 to 80 hours of labor.  MORE

  1. Huh! Don’t tell me SOMEONE got screwed by the democrats! I just can’t believe it. I’m certain it wasn’t ‘intentional’, perhaps just a ‘short circuit’. When will the suckers of liberalbot land EVER wake up? They not only get shat upon, they invite it! Karma is laughing it’s ass off, again. I love it.

  2. That’s OK – wait until they take those donkeys back to their Democrat lairs, and the sun goes down. Around midnight, little trap doors will swing open and hundreds of tiny Greek warriors will emerge from them to pillage and slaughter the unsuspecting Prog delegates in their sleep.

    And their battle cry shall be: “TROJAN DONKEYS FOR TRUMP! FOR SPARTAAAA…!!!!!”

    😛

  3. Welcome aboard, grab your ankles.

    The artists will join the longggg list of people who have been screwed by the democrat party at the community, township, county, regional, state and national level.
