Trucking It
Arty van

Not long ago, if you wanted something delivered, you'd be hard-pressed to get anything apart from dodgy Chinese, Indian, or a pizza. That's if you ordered before midnight.

Now it seems that everything's available for delivery. Businesses have copped on to how lazy we all are. Not only can you order a mobile spa, bar, or any type of cuisine, there's now the "grown up" glamtastic ice cream van called Scoop that will be appearing at festivals nation-wide and the smoothie-serving Dancing Green Vans.

Even art galleries have gone mobile. Truck Art is a new venture that offers a mobile exhibition space to young and emerging artists. Founded by Joe Frazer, the white vans are often parked in front of hip spots in London, making young art more accessible.

Tonight's truck will be parked at b-Store and featuring the work of Rachael Bradley, Joseph Fraser and Prem Sahib.

Let's hope they don't get clamped.

Truck Art - 6-9pm tonight May 31
at b-STORE, 24A Saville Row, W1, afterparty at Sketch from 9pm. Visit the site for other truck events; June at a NCP car park in central London, July, outside a friend's house, August, Blackpool promenade.
