Photo of Rotary Arts Centre and south side exterior pathway. In the middle of the photo is 3 concrete steps, approximately 10 feet in length, with metal handrails on both sides of the steps. The handrails terminate suddenly versus turning to attach to the ground. On the right side there is a ramp with handrails. The path to the building is smooth concrete. The glassed atrium of the building and entrance to the Arts Centre is the middle ground. The south wall of the building is a glass wall, with a large glass garage style door at its base which is closed. To the left is the walkway to the front entrance. That entrance is not visible. The building roof is curved or sloped towards the ground and extends from the glass atrium to cover the walkway. In the far background there is a large building tower and mountain to the left of the Arts Centre and blue sky.

Photo of a smooth asphalt path with green grape vines on the left and a rock wall with greenery on the right. Heading away from the camera is a male with blond hair wheeling a wheelchair on the left side of the path. A blond long haired woman with helmet, is on his right alongside him riding a bike on the right side of the path. The woman is wearing a blue short sleeved shirt, blue shorts and runners. The sky is blue with clouds and the sun casts their shadows on the path.
