HOMETOWN BICYCLES’ STUDENT ART PROGRAM!
We’re putting out a challenge to the schools in our community – to have their art students (drawing, painting, metalwork, pottery, you-name-it-we’ll-take-it) create bicycle artwork to display in our shop. Many of these pieces will be for sale, AND (this is important)…
TO THE STUDENT WHO CREATED IT!
This is a chance for budding artists to get some real-world business experience and public exposure for their art.
A special kudos goes out to Maureen Ray and her Brighton High School art studentsfor being the first to accept the challenge! Come and check out their imaginative artwork at our shop. Maybe you’ll see something that you’ll want to take home!
Want to see YOUR kids’ artwork at Hometown? Connect with your school art teacher, and have them contact Dawn at office@myhometownbicycles.com or (810) 225-2441. Any school, any age level; it’s never too early to support a love for art and bicycles!
Hi Shaun
Have you contacted St. Mary in Pinckney? George is a fabulous artist and I would like for him to be involved in this. Does it have to be through the school? Thanks for doing this.
Hi, Janice, this is Shaun’s wife, Dawn — I haven’t connected with St. Mary’s yet, but would love to get them on the schedule! I’ve just sent you an email with contact details. Hope to talk soon!
