There is an old saying, “I don’t know art, but I know what I like.” We may not know art either, but we did like the SRAM pART Project that we saw at Interbike. This project consisted of sculptures made of bicycle components and now SRAM President Stanley R. Day is making sure that the art does some good.
He has joined with World Bicycle Relief Founder F.K. Day to announce an exhibition and auction at Chicago’s Gallery 1028 to take place on Wednesday, November 30. This will be the grand finale of the SRAM pART Project, with the proceeds, including the admission fee of $134 fee, going to World Bicycle Relief – that price essentially is the cost of one donated bicycle.
Date: Wednesday, November 30
Time: 6:00 pm CST
Location: Gallery 1028 1028 North Hooker | Chicago, IL 60642
Tickets: $134 (the cost for World Bicycle Relief to donate one bicycle)
Parts into Art into Aid
Artists transform bike parts into art. The art is auctioned off. The proceeds help people in need, through World Bicycle Relief. This is the SRAM pART Project, making art that makes a difference.
The Cause
World Bicycle Relief serves people in underdeveloped regions of the world who suffer from lack of access to health care, education, and economic opportunity. With a bicycle you can travel up to four times farther, so you can get to a doctor, to school, or to work faster and more safely.
