This year’s Art in Motion program is meant to integrate the creative spirit of movement into Snowmass Village’s mobility and cultural landscape. Through this partnership, Anderson Ranch and WE-cycle, both nonprofit organizations, have blended each other’s missions by bringing the work of eight Anderson Ranch-based artists onto WE-cycle stations and select e-bikes. By incorporating art and design while encouraging the use of independent, equitable, fun, and car-free transportation, both organizations continue to inspire and connect the community. 

This program is underwritten by the Town of Snowmass Village.

This season, Art in Motion is bringing colorful palettes evoking movement and connectivity to the blue WE-cycle e-bikes. The design, by local artist Bailey Haines, that debuted on the Carbondale WE-cycle stations in 2023, rolls valley-wide on one side of the e-bike fenders. Both art and bikes bring us joy.  We hope to inspire similar feelings in our riders by uniting these two forms. 

On the other side of the fender, we feature the call to action, “Join the movement.” May those who witness these bikes be compelled to hop on a WE-cycle, stop and contemplate beautiful art, or find a creative spirit in themselves.

The inaugural year of Art in Motion, aligned with the opening of the Carbondale WE-cycle System, as a collaboration between WE-cycle and Carbondale Arts aims to integrate creativity, connectivity, and cycling. In a town known for artistic panache and a penchant for biking, the pairing not only makes sense, but it honors the soul of Carbondale. WE-cycle also provides an accessible form of transportation for locals and visitors alike to explore Carbondale’s Creative District by bicycle.

Designs from Carbondale artist, Bailey Haines, adorn all 17 bikeshare stations as well as 5 e-bikes throughout town and feature the layering of the landscape and beautiful flowers and plants that can be seen growing around Carbondale. May WE-cycle help the community discover beauty, like local art and nature, and connect people to place.
