Spoke(n) Art Ride - Photographing L.A. Bike Culture
05.10.08
The Spoke(n) Art bicycle ride is a free, once-a-month, bicycle tour of art galleries in North East Los Angeles.
The ride takes place on the second Saturday of each month - a special night in North East Los Angeles. Area art galleries open their doors late into the night as part of NELAart's "Gallery Night".
This month’s Spoke(n) Art Ride will feature the work of photographers, artists, and cyclists who are a part of Team Midnight Ridazz in a show entitled "Photographing L.A. Bike Culture". The exhibition opens on Saturday, May 10, 2008 and will remain at the Bike Oven until June 7, 2008. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, May 10, at 7 pm. For further information about the Photographing L.A. Bike Culture exhibition, please contact Steven at stevo.rd AT verizon.net
The Ride:
The Spoke(n) Art Ride will begin (as it usually does), at the flagpole on the corner of Figueroa and York Blvd. in Highland Park. We will leave at 6:30 p.m. for a mellow ride to about 7 or 8 different galleries open for NELA Art's Second Saturday.
No cover charges, no waivers, just bring a functioning bike (and some blinky lights).
The ride will end at the Bike Oven & Sandpaper Books at 3706 N. Figueroa Street, Los Angeles, CA 90065 - where an art opening will be in full swing.
