Looking for a way to explore some local art and get a little workout? Scottsdale Public Art is hosting their 7th Annual Cycle of the Arts ride this Sunday, April 1, to explore some of the newer public arts around a short loop through Scottsdale.

Registration for the ride begins at 8:30 a.m. in front of the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art. Ride leaders will lead small groups of cyclists starting at 9 a.m. for a 7-mile lap that will stop at four art locations.

Artists such as Mary Lucking, Erin Sotak, and Ilan Averbuch will be on hand to discuss the works showcased along the route.

Scottsdale Public Art will also be handing out helmet stickers and gelato coupons along the way to keep all family members happy, and SMoCA will be opening the doors with free admission between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m..
