bikes

On the inside of the building, come enjoy creating with other Cherokee families in either the "move room", the "art room" or the "quiet room" as we dance, draw, and read in each others' company. Out in the back yard, the bike shop helps local residents tune their rides. At the end of the day, the "CAMP family" gathers for some food and brainstorming.

Volunteers with mechanical or creative savvy especially welcome to engage neighborhood youth in exploring their potential using bikes and art.

The bike shop at the Community Arts and Media Project has been in operation for over five years now on a volunteer-run basis - providing both free and low-cost bike maintenance and giving neighborhood residents the opportunity to build their own bikes from donated parts. We operate on a model of mutual aid and empowerment, encouraging neighborhood residents to trade volunteer hours for bikes, help each other work on their bikes, and build their skills and capacity.

While we have the goal of keeping bikes on the street and putting new bikes on the street, at the end of the day of more primary importance are the relationships we are building.
