Event overview

Back in 1986, Nick Corston, Patron of Ludlow Fringe 21 came back home from University with a cycle and was one of the first people 2 mountain bike in Whitcliffe Woods.

Thanks to the vision, determination and hard work of a few local people it is now one of the most respected stops on the national mountain biking racing circuit.

The area is now also home to one of the country’s most visionary cycle designers and manufacturers in Isla Bikes, so what better than to have an evening discussing the power of pedals, to connect us all.

The #ARTofBIKES evening of talks is part of a programme of #ARTCONNECTS21 events co-curated by Nick Corston with Ludlow Fringe to showcase the power of art and creativity to inspire children in their learning, power the economy and connect communities.

We want this to be an interactive event and want to hear from you with your stories, so start sharing pictures and memories on Facebook and sign up to say a few words on the night.

STEAM Co.

Nick co-founded the non-profit community enterprise STEAM Co. to help connect our kids with their art and our communities with their schools.

This evening of talks, films and other artistic contributions will appeal to all creative carers - people and organisations who care about children, creativity and all our futures.

To that end Nick will launch a £2m fund to put 22 STEAM Co. Drop Trucks and STEAMsters on the road across the UK for their #Festival22 of Creativity.

It will be live and live streamed globally and we really want you to bring your stories as well as share them on social media in advance with the the tag #ARTofDADS #LudlowFringe21.
