South Park Arts teams up with In Motion South Park for an Art and Architecture Tour! By foot or by bike, it’s a great way to explore your neighborhood and find out about its past from the sordid to the sublime. We’ll find out about the old–like the SParks Building (a.k.a. Mike’s La Cantina), the Hat House and Marra Farm and the new–like the Skate Park and the Library.

Maps will be available at the Neighborhood Center, (that’s the Old Firehouse at 8201 10th Ave S) if you want to grab one and travel at your own pace OR join one of two guided bike tours. The first tour leaves at 6:30 and the second at 7:30.

And check out the local art studios open along the way:

• John Hoge Studio!
• The Jim L Acord Bronze Foundry!
• Hazard Factory!
• 1244 Studios! (That’s Catherine Grisez and Peggy Foy and Urbancase–all in one shop!)

Yeah, we might get soggy. But the rain will just separate the hardy from the comfy and dry. Or something. Wear those helmets, people! See ya Wednesday.
