Organiser's Description
Trailnet’s favorite tour guide and art consultant, Dana Gray (Tower Grove Neighborhoods Community Development Corp.), will show us more of St. Louis’ artistic marvels!
This year’s Community Art ride will highlight public art and gathering places featuring the St. Louis Art Museum, The Kemper Art Museum, and Bill Christmans sculpture garden in the Skinker DeBaliviere neighborhood.

About Trailnet Community Rides
Trailnet Community Rides are guided, slow-paced, group bike rides that explore the history and culture of the St. Louis Community.
Community Rides generally last around 3 hours. There are no staffed rest stops on these rides, and we cannot guarantee access to restrooms or water. Please plan accordingly.
Community Rides registration is capped at 75 participants. A smaller group allows us to manage riders on open city streets safely, ensures our docents/guides can effectively deliver information, and guarantees that local stops (museums, churches, businesses, etc.…) won’t be overwhelmed when we roll up.
