Jul 29 - Jul 30

5:00pm - 9:00pm

Enjoy a special showcase of stunning classic and custom motorcycles built right here in our community. This unique pop-up exhibition celebrates the skill, creativity, and passion that bring these machines to life.

Featuring a curated selection of remarkable motorbikes, art moto invites you to look beyond function and explore these machines as works of art—where sculptural forms, meticulous engineering, and personal expression come together. From beautifully preserved classics to imaginative custom builds, each motorcycle tells a story of design, transformation, and the passion of its maker.

For this pop-up exhibition, we are partnering with the moto social Winnipeg community and team Winnipeg organizer, Steve Xoumph.

Whether you’re a motorcycle enthusiast, an art lover, or simply curious, join us on July 29 & 30 to experience the beauty of these extraordinary machines.
