Art Bike: Community Bicycle Decoration Workshops
June 11 & 18, 1 – 4 PM
Dufferin Grove Park Field House
Clay & Paper Theatre and Cyclops: Cycling Oriented Puppet Squad are pleased to invite members of the public to join us in two afternoons of bicycle decoration. From simply adding a flag or flowers to your basket, to building a bicycle float on your bike trailer, we will innovate ways to make your bike stand out amongst the crowds of boring brand names and beaters.
Some examples of bicycle decoration that inspires us:

Some materials will be provided, but please do bring your own!
