Slow and Low: Chicago Lowrider Festival, a celebration of lowrider culture, community and art is returning next weekend.
The last Chicago Lowrider Festival was held outdoors in September 2018 in Pilsen, exhibiting more than 250 customized cars, and dozens of bicycles and motorcycles. With this year’s event moving indoors, it called for some changes and a reimagining of the event. The sibling duo of Pacheco and Kepha are third generation Mexican Americans who have been collaborating on creative projects for over 15 years.
The festival will also highlight the Mexican American and Chicano roots of lowriding, particularly in Chicago and in the greater Midwest community. At least 40 lowrider clubs representing the Midwest are expected to attend.
