 Ride & Walk 4 Art 
Sunday, March 20, 2022 

Registration opens January 1, 2022

Save the Date!
March 20, 2022

We are optimistic about 2022, and so we have scheduled a Ride & Walk 4 Art event for March 20, 2022. Please be aware that this event is subject to State and Local health department rulings and guidelines, and all public health safety protocols will be required. 

Registration will open on January 1, 2022


Ride  Walk 4 Art is a fun way to help Calaveras County public schools provide meaningful art instruction to our kids. You get a joyful, monitored, safe ride through beautiful Calaveras County  and every dime of our profits is used to expose kids to theater, painting, drawing, literature and poetry.

Our kids need the arts so that they develop life-long creative skills that they will need to survive in our world. And this year, the need is even greater, as school budgets have been slashed. Please help us keep the arts in our public schools.

Join us for a day of fun to support arts in education!

Please join us on March 20, 2022 for Ride & Walk 4 Art in the beautiful California foothills in West Calaveras County. Choose from 3 bicycle rides—25-miles, 45-miles, or 75 miles—or an easy 4.5-mile walk skirting New Hogan Lake.

Our stripped down Fifth Annual Ride & Walk4Art was a success, and we're keeping our fingers crossed that in 2022 we can add back in lunch, entertainment, and artwork. 

Make an overnight of the event and stay locally. The tri-lake area has ample camping and other overnight accommodations. Click here to see all accommodations. 

We're accepting no more than 350 participants—300 cyclists and 50 walkers—making this an intimate ride with a community vibe. You'll traverse rolling California foothills along roads that rarely see cars, past scenic views of oak forests and pastoral meadows and the blue waters of three reservoirs. The hill climbs offer spectacular views; you can see Mt. Diablo on a clear day. 

Your participation will help raise funds for the Calaveras Arts Council Arts in Education program, a program designed to bring art, music, dance, and theatre to the schools of Calaveras County. 
In the past we have supported watercolor classes, collage instruction, ceramic classes, and school murals. The kids are creative; they are hungry for art.  Simply by having fun, you can help us help the children of Calaveras County. 
Registration: Opens January 1
​Registration closes at 300 riders and 50 walkers.
