Reimagining Bohrer Alley: Artist Takeover & Bike Rodeo

  • Bohrer Alley Scio Street Rochester, NY United States (map)

Artists Are Transforming Our Alley

Join us for a community celebration as local artists transform Bohrer Alley into a vibrant public space through art installations that will remain long after the event. This isn't just a one-day event—it's the beginning of something lasting.
One of the highlights: the Bike Rodeo, led by SW Rotary Bike Club Leader, Karen Lankeshofer. Learn more about the Bike Rodeo below!

What's Happening

Public Art Installations

Watch artists create murals, sculptures, and interactive installations that will transform Bohrer Alley into a creative community hub.

The art stays. The community grows.

Bike Safety Rodeo - Ends at 12:00 pm (Noon)

Free bike safety skills course for kids, led by SW Rotary Bike Club Leader, Karen Lankeshofer. Bring the kids with their bikes (and helmets!) and enjoy the fun activities we have planned.

Music, Food & Community

Live music, local food vendors, and opportunities to connect with neighbors and learn about the vision for Bohrer Alley's future.

Why This Matters

For too long, alleyways have been underutilized service corridors. Reimagining Bohrer Alley shows what's possible when community creativity meets public space.

This event celebrates art as placemaking—permanent installations that invite neighbors to gather, play, and imagine new possibilities for shared spaces.

The bike rodeo introduces families to the alley in a fun, safe way. The art invites them to return again and again.
