I got this idea from a fun scavenger hunt the SF MOMA museum is running. This would be a great program in any community!

On the morning of the hunt, each of the 50 teams selected to participate will receive 100 clues. These clues help teams earn points — and points translate into prize money. After deciphering the clues, the teams must beg, borrow, barter, and bluff their way around the city, scavenging the items required. At the end of the day, teams can expect to have collected an array of strange and wonderful objects, many of which relate to artworks in the SFMOMA collection. The team with the most points wins a $4,000 cash prize. (which is funded by people's $100 registration fees I think)

Joshua Sofaer, the artist who inspired this, will use the objects collected in the hunt as the basis for a three-day exhibition at SFMOMA.
