Tour d’Architecture Bike Tour

Overview: Our popular bicycle ride, showcasing the latest in architectural design and development in Sacramento, goes virtual this year with a pre-recorded ride, featuring location tours and interviews with architects, builders and developers.

Stops include the Powerhouse Science Center; the new fruit building hotel at 4th & Q; the residential lofts at 1430 Q Street; the Fine Arch Bookstore (formally Richard Press) and more!

After the “ride” our architect hosts will be available live to answer questions and chat about the projects. Participants will receive a map to visit the projects later on their own, if they desire to do so.

Zoom link will be provided to registered participants.

The event will be recorded and available to the public on the Chapter’s Vimeo afterwards.

Experience Architecture is a public-outreach event designed by AIA Central Valley to facilitate greater transparency with the public in how architects create our built environment and how it impacts their daily lives; to create an ongoing dialogue to inform a distinct, regional, architectural identity; and to highlight existing relationships between the region and its architecture.

This year’s event runs October 6-11, 2020. Find out more and see other events at www.aiacv.org/exparch
