On January 18th and 19th the Centro per lo sviluppo creativo Danilo Dolci hosted the final transnational meeting of the project The Art of Cycling in Palermo. Partners from Italy, North Macedonia and Hungary met to discuss the results of the project and planned the next activities, which will take place in the partner countries during the March 2023.
The Art of Cycling aims to empower adults in learning a valuable new basic skill that will enable them to adapt an environmentally friendly and sustainable lifestyle: bicycle assembly, repair and maintenance. The project promotes a learning opportunity for its target that will empower and assist them. It is also working with artists to develop skills in a new medium, which is artistic bicycle painting as an approach for motivation to learn more about the bicycles and their functionalities.
During the March 2023, CSC Danilo Dolci will organise three workshops in Palermo involving adults, artists and other people who are passionate about cycling or want to strengthen their skills and knowledge on repairing and maintenance of bicycle in an artistic way. The artistic workshops will be led by the experts who will present different steps of the process, and it will be realised through a process in which bikes and maintenance will be promoted in a fun, participatory and interactive way.
Finally, at the end of March, a final event will be organised in Palermo, all the products that has been developed in past two years will be presented during the final event. Also, during the final workshop participants will have the opportunity to bring their own bikes and decorate them with the instructions given by the artists.
