   Art Detour: Artists' Buildings

"Seattle's Largest Open Studio Event - Art Detour Seattle aims to... promote a dynamic art community by creating access for all to explore where and how art is made."

The 1999 detour "featured major buildings in Seattle where a concentrated number of artists work, plus additional private studios around the city. The public was invited to visit, meet the creators, see new work in the place where it was made, and buy directly from the artist."

Bike Works -
Community Bike Shop

"One day in 8th grade, I was walking with my friend Mikaelin and he mentioned something about working at a bicycle shop. Since we were right by the shop at the time, we went in there and talked to a guy named Chris.

"We asked them if they had job opportunities and Chris told us that they had a program called Earn-a-Bike.  For only $20 and permission from your mom or dad, you can participate. He explained that you take a class about bicycle repair (a different part each week). Then during Earn-a-Bike you work on bikes and they pay you a bicycle part by part."

- D. J. Smith, Earn-A-Bike graduate, Fall 1998
