Bicycles will be parked in this newly made bike rack outside the Butler Art Center on Friday as part of the celebration of the fifth annual Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival.

The Butler Art Center will display a steel sculpture that is a Jeep-themed bicycle rack in front of the gallery on Main Street as part of the fifth annual Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival this weekend.

The piece was fabricated by artistic welder Paul Blasko at GIS, an oil field services company, using donated materials from the company, and it was finished at Oesterling Sandblasting & Painting, also with donated time and materials.

The art center will host an open house Friday, the day of the Jeep Parade and Invasion downtown, part of the celebration of the Bantam Jeep’s 75th anniversary. The parade begins at 2:30 p.m. followed by the Invasion which continues until 10 p.m.

Other festival activities are Friday through Sunday at Cooper’s Lake Campground.

Some “Anything with Wheels” artwork is being displayed through June 19 at the Art Center.

The art center will be open from noon to 9 p.m. Friday for the open house. Entertainment is planned after 5 p.m.

The gallery at 344 S. Main St. also will be open for regular hours from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday. Admission is free.
