Bike Art

Today, my son and I went to the workshop at BICAS. Zevin (my son) had so much fun! He made several masks and other little projects that Val provided the materials for(Thanks Val). The purpose of participating in the workshop today was to create art that is to be sold in the art auction. It was really exciting to see that a decent size group of people came to participate. I thought that the whole experience of taking bike parts and being able to transform then into something else was amazing. Having gone and participated in this makes me more motivated to work on outreach for this organization. I really enjoyed the fact that everyone was very receptive and excited to collaborate with my son J. With the help of others he was able to create what he called “a man climbing a mountain” out of the parts and Troy was able to weld it for him. He was so proud that he was able to participate with the adults. The art that was created by everyone today was incredible! The members of our class are so creative. All in all I really enjoyed my self and plan on participating in the workshop next week.
