5th Annual! For this FREE community event, Milagro Theatre staff will give all riders a garland of artificial marigolds, whose orange and yellow colors are believed to represent sun and light, helping to guide spirits back to the world of the living. This year’s bike ride marks a powerful transition--crossing the bridge to expand partnerships into the Northeast, uniting two neighborhoods through Mexican tradition, art, and collective memory. The ride will join Lloyd EcoDistrict’s Blumenauer Bridge Witching Hour Celebration. The Street Trust with support from Milagro and Cycle Homies will lead a five-mile route that features intermittent stops at participating business locations that are participating by hosting their own altars for public viewing. The ride is a slow-paced, stay-together loop, with stops for the altar visits, and is family friendly. The public is encouraged to dress in costume and decorate their bikes for the occasion. Milagro partners with Central Eastside Together to match member businesses with Latino artists to create altars, which are displayed throughout the Festival.
