UPAF Ride for the Arts to return with Hoan Loop course and finish line festival

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The 45th annual UPAF Ride for the Arts will feature its signature Hoan Loop course and a festival-style finish line celebration when it returns to downtown Milwaukee on Sunday, June 1.

The ride, presented by Miller Lite, supports fundraising efforts for the United Performing Arts Fund.

Annemarie Scobey-Polacheck, UPAF’s president and CEO, joined us Wednesday, May 21 for a preview.

The 15-mile course will close I-794 and Lincoln Memorial Drive from 7 to 11 a.m., allowing riders to complete the loop multiple times. A shorter Arts Path route through Lakeshore State Park offers a family-friendly option.

UPAF Fest runs from 8 a.m. to noon at Henry Maier Festival Park with performances, food trucks and free beer sampling. Registration and donation details are available by clicking here.
