Your school may choose to focus on a specific country, or a specific topic or curriculum area. This presentation can be customized based on your needs!

This visual arts assembly includes Storytelling, interactivity with audience volunteers, and is accompanied by an original music score as world bike adventurer and composer George Maurer takes students on a journey across the world, sharing stories of amazing encounters with people and cultures he has had on a bicycle.

It's part educational, part environmental, part inspirational, and an all-live and interactive musical performance blended with video experiences from the viewpoint of a bicycle seat that’s journeyed all over the world.
