The "alternative Spoleto," the Evolution Art Show starts today, May 29th, and runs through June 13th displaying progressive art throughout the city.

The event starts with events at Vickery's, Urban Outfitters, Point Break, and the Upper Deck featuring graffiti, art, music, and photography. 

On Saturday, May 30th the show will team up with Holy City Bike Coop for an event at The Recovery Room, think bike valet, bike tune-ups, and "sick" bike helmets designed by local artists.
