Close Encounters: Build-A-Bike
- to This is a past program
How can you bike through snow? On the sun? In the air? Discover how you can design with the environment in mind in the exhibition Provocations: The Architecture and Design of Heatherwick Studio. Design a new bicycle for an imaginative setting and build a model bike with designer, educator, and bike enthusiast Dice Yamaguchi.
After you create your own bike model, head down Westwood Boulevard for more bike fun at the Fowler Museum for their Bike Day Family Festival from 1PM to 4PM. Bicycle stands are available at the Hammer Museum at the Lindbrook Drive entrance from 10:30AM to 1:30PM.
This program complements the Fowler Museum’s exhibition Round Trip: Bicycling Asia Minor, 1891.
