    Creative artworks, iconography and object ephemera from Chicago's BIKE ARTS and ADVOCACY communities celebrate, revere, lionize, criticize and focus on THE BICYCLE as symbol of activism, invention, agency, community, strategy and sustainable transportation. This exhibit presents works in all media – paint, print, drawing, sculpture, photography, video, audio, installation, craft and fashion. The curatorial theme—and only content restriction—is that the work should be bicycle themed or inspired.

    EVENTS - IN THE GALLERY

    MISSING: ALLS FEAR IN LOVE & DREAD / A TTRPG
    The GAME :: Sat, March 21, 5–10 pm

    Everybody has heard the tale of Cassidy Sullivan by now. She’s practically a local legend; a boogeyman to scare children. “Don’t go out at night. Too dangerous; see what happened to Cassidy!?” “Don’t talk to strangers or you’ll end up like Cassidy!” It’s been a year since her disappearance (she was 16 years old when last seen). The police have long since chased down and exhausted all leads they had and have come up with nothing. It’s as though she simply vanished into thin air like a magic trick, only no one’s laughing. Her mother, however, has never given up hope her daughter will return. 

    As a figure in Cass' life, you've caught wind of a candlelight vigil being held by her family on the one year anniversary of her disappearance, and decide to attend to pay your respects…

    Join GM Katy Crow for an evening game of FANTASY STORYTELLING via audience participatory table top role-playing gaming. Details & registration link…
