A new season of Downtown Texarkana Bicycle Tours returns with "A Cycle Through Public Art"

Wouldn’t it be nice to travel around the city and feel the wind on your face as you enjoy learning about art in the Texarkana area? Isn't this the kind of thing we dreamed about as we locked ourselves indoors during the last couple of years?

Well, The City of Texarkana, Texas, and the Texarkana Museum System answered our prayers with the return of their popular bicycle tours in the Spring. 

What’s more: You get delicious appetizers from Pecan Point Gastropub after the tour concludes.

This season’s theme is titled “A Cycle Through Public Art.” Bicycle tours will be held each Friday at 5:30 pm from April 29th to May 20th. 

 “The fall 2021 bicycle tours focused on historic buildings in downtown Texarkana, which was a lot of fun for participants of all ages,” shared Administrative Programs Manager Keith Beason. 

“This season, we have decided to focus on several murals and other public art exhibits in downtown Texarkana,” Beason added. 

These tours are free to the public but are limited to 10 people per tour. 

All participants are encouraged to bring their own bicycle; however, The City and Texarkana Museum System has a limited number of bikes for those that cannot provide their own. 

The tour will begin at The Museum of Regional History, 219 N. Stateline Avenue, Texarkana, TX 75501.

It will include murals and public art in both Texarkana, TX, and Texarkana, AR, before concluding at Pecan Point Microbrewery.
