The Fremont Arts Council (FAC) has asked participants in the Solstice Cyclists Bike Ride, on Saturday, June 18th, to pre-register. Riders who plan to strip down, paint up and wheel out before the legendary performance art parade are asked to sign-up by e-mail address in advance.
FAC Board President Susan Harper issued a request to all painted cyclists that provide moving body art before the 28th Annual Solstice Parade to RSVP this year. Reserved cyclists will be contacted in advance of next year’s ride, and have priority registration if a limit on the number of cyclist must be implemented.
The Solstice Cyclists, and the Fremont Arts Council, are both non-profit organizations run by volunteers. The FAC believes that art helps build stronger community and a sense of place. Donations to help sustain and steward the iconic Solstice Parade are needed, and can be given in advance of theses events, by credit card, at fremontartscouncil.org/donate
