Tracy Kosinski’s black and white images of scantily clad cruiser riders lined the walls of prAna’s art space. The images were an appropriate selection for Boulder’s summer-like First Friday of November.
As part of the First Friday art walk, prAna opened their doors and partnered with Avery Brewing Co. to present two local artists’ appreciation of these bicycles common to Boulder.
“As a bike lover I can’t imagine anything more fun,” said attendee Paul Sampson. “I’ve taken part in the Golden cruiser ride and the Boulder ride looks just as fun or even better.”

“I appreciate that prAna makes the effort to put together events for the community,” attendee Lauren Seaton said. “. . . especially outside their specialty of retail clothing and fashion.”
Alongside Kosinski’s photography sat Del Kreiser’s re-purposed artwork.
“The chair is more comfortable than it looks, but the pillow was a little awkward because it forces you to sit in one spot,” Seaton said.
Kreiser works with old bicycles and any other materials he can find to craft unusual chairs and tables.

prAna wasn’t having all of the fun. Design Within Reach opened their doors to six local artists to raise money for the Boulder County Museum of Contemporary Arts.
For two hours, six painters frantically worked to created extremely different works as many observers looked on in admiration. William Bishop (left) and Clay Hawkley (right) were two of six artists to volunteer their time and skill.
Also participating in the fundraiser were William Stoehr, Amee Hinkley, Colleen Tully and Fernando Palomo.
