High School art students from the Brown School, du Pont Manual, Presentation Academy and St. Francis High School were given eight old bikes each to turn into pieces of art. All 32 Art Bikes were displayed together in the lobby of The Kentucky Center the weekend of April 24-25. On Monday, April 26, the Art Bikes were placed at the LDMD Bike Rack Sculptures for three weeks. After the public display, the Art Bikes were returned to the students. The Art Bikes are on our website if you missed them.
