An art exhbition gets on its (yellow electric) bike

From Standing Room Only, 2:26 pm on 11 September 2022

It's the ultimate example of taking art to the people - a bright yellow electric cargo bike filled with art supplies is about to hit the streets of Christchurch.

It's the idea of artist Isaac Tait, made possible with the help of The White Room Creative Space and a fundraising campaign.

It's also versatile.  The bike's about to make its first official appearance at the  Ōtautahi Zinefest, where it'll become a mobile zine library.

Lynn Freeman talks to Simon Gray, the White Room's Art Coordinator, and to Isaac who explains when he had the idea.

Look out for the bright yellow electric cargo bike - "The White Room On Wheels" - in action on the streets of Christchurch soon!.
