Calling All Creepy Creators!
Step into the wonderfully weird world of Mortify Me, where innocent ceramic figurines meet the unhinged brilliance of local makers. Participants will purchase a $5 - $15 figurine from Odd Aly‑Kat Emporium, granting them entry into the competition—and one full month to transform that sweet, unsuspecting object into a mortifying masterpiece.
Cute becomes creepy. Wholesome becomes horrifying. Charming becomes… concerning.
Once the transformation period ends, all entries will be showcased in our Mortify Me Art Gallery, a one‑night-only exhibition celebrating grotesque creativity, macabre humor, and the delightfully deranged. Guests will wander the gallery, vote on their favorites, and witness the crowning of winners across categories such as Best Gore, Most Unsettling, Funniest Abomination, and Most Dramatic Glow‑Up.
Whether you sculpt, paint, carve, glue, stitch, or summon eldritch inspiration, this is your chance to unleash your inner chaos gremlin and make something gloriously awful.
Dare to mortify. Delight in the monstrous. And remember—once you start, there’s no going back.
