Actor Shia LaBeouf and two other artists are hitching rides from Twitter users for the next month as part of an art project.

LaBeouf, Nastja Säde Rönkkö and Luke Turner appeared at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art over the weekend. The museum and the Finnish Institute in London commissioned the three to then allow people to take them anywhere.

Each day from May 23 to June 23, the artists are posting coordinates on a special website. The website says, "You are invited to pick up the artists whenever their coordinates are posted above and take them anywhere."

The name came from one of Rönkkö's latest projects titled "Take Me Anywhere."

The first set of coordinates were posted at noon on LaBeouf's Twitter page. It was a location near Chapel on the Rock, on Highway 7, between Allenspark and Estes Park.
