The 2025 Art By Bus Celebration was held today in downtown Roanoke, and included remarks by this year’s “Writer By Bus,” in which a local author rode Valley Metro buses earlier this year, and then journaled about it. Author and illustrator Joe Lee turned that experience into “The Wheels on the Bus,” a comic book style work. Lee’s illustrations for his Wheels on the Bus book also became a wrap that is now decorating a Valley Metro bus. His book will be available at various venues around Roanoke.
