Get on your bikes and ride!

A full week of pedal power leading up to Streets Alive!
August 23 - 28

In cooperation with Great Northern Bicycle Company and the FM Community Bike Workshop, Plains Art Museum presents a series of bike-related events that will be held in tandem with Streets Alive!, a community-wide event in which select streets will be closed to motorists and left open for cyclists and other human-powered travel. Hop on your two-wheeler and join us in bringing together art, community health, and alternative travel.
