The Denver Office of Cultural Affairs (DOCA) have created a bicycle tour of its slate of Public Art Tours. The inaugural bike tour of selected works in Downtown Denver and the Central Plate Valley will take place on Sunday, July 19. The tour will be led by DOCA Public Art staff members Rudi Cerri and Brooke Jones. Highlights include art at Denver Skate Park, Commons Park, Colorado Convention Center and Civic Center Park.
This tour will begin at 10 a.m. at the City of Cuernavaca Park, located at 20th St. & Platte St. As with all Public Art Tours, this tour is free, but limited to 15 people. All participants will be required to wear appropriate safety gear, including a helmet. Participants must sign a release form and will need to provide their own bike, water, food and repair kits. The tour will last approximately two hours, with a distance of almost three miles, and make use of available bike routes and paths.
