Celebrating bikes and BMX with art

Using bikes and BMX as inspiration, artists of all ages have created sculptures, paintings, drawings, and more celebrate the UCI BMX 2017 World Championships, July 25-30 at the BMX Super Cross Track in Rock Hill.

Partners in this project include Rock Hill School District, Friday Arts Project, Catawba River Arts Guild, Arts Council of York County and a local bike shop.

Cycling-themed artwork will be on display at venues in downtown Rock Hill as part of the opening ceremony and throughout the week of the event.

Fort Mill High School student Hannah Stackhouse’s photography is featured on banners for the event, according to the school district.
