Concrete Playground

Bicycles are the wonder ingredient that make any activity rate higher on the Fun Scale. Need to buy milk? Ride down to the shops! Need to visit your grandma? Ride to her place! Need to break up with your partner? Ride away fast!

Where to from here? is a four-hour celebration of the bicycle's talent for sprucing up our quality of life, featuring the collective visions of Sydney's creative brethren. Centre stage for the evening will be Spoke and Spool, a new fashion label by textile wunderkinds Alia Parker and Laura Pike, whose gregarious threads will be all over you when next you go a-wheel peddling.

Sartorial cycles aside, there's futurism and utopia abounding throughout the evening, including Sydney power poppers Happenstance, NOW now curator Monika Brooks and formalist wizard Tully Arnot. It'll be more fun than sticking the ace of hearts in your spokes!
