The final project of our public art seminar class is to make art bikes
We are going to enter them into the upcoming art car parade May 8th.
These are old ones that were laying around my shop and other students have been bringing in bike parts.
We have been collecting them throughout the semester.
I am making, rightnow, at home that is a washing machine bicylce that washes clothes as you ride down the road.
Through our discussions we decided the theme we are going to work iwth is making sound, so all of the bikes will be making various sound.
I hope that everybody will feel the energy as they go through the parade and as people clap for their bikes and will feel encouraged to do even better next year and even enter again and again
Little time, little money can fascilitate creative thinking when you are pushed to the limits like that.
We'll see what they come up with. It's almost a tradition with art cars that a lot of them happen week or days before the parade happens.
The parade has been a fun event for our students to become involved with and connect with the local art community that's out there
