WHITNEY HOPPER RIDE
SAT, JULY 20, 2024

Join us to celebrate Edward Hopper’s birthday with a round-trip bike ride from the Museum in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District to Hopper’s birthplace of Nyack, New York along the Hudson River. This approximately 60-mile round-trip bike ride will take place July 20, 2024, in celebration of Edward Hopper’s 142nd birthday.  

Cyclists will start their journey at registration early Saturday morning from 7–8:30 am outside the Whitney Museum (99 Gansevoort Street, Manhattan) before heading north to the Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center (82 North Broadway, Nyack). The Edward Hopper House will offer snacks and tours of the artist’s home, including a look at his 1897 bicycle. At the end of the visit riders will head back to the Whitney Museum which is located near the neighborhood where Hopper lived and worked for much of his life. 

Each participant will receive an exclusive Whitney Hopper Ride water bottle and two tickets to return to visit both the Edward Hopper House Museum and the Whitney Museum, which always has works by Hopper on display as part of its permanent collection exhibition.

Experienced cyclists are encouraged to sign up for the ride, a partnership with Transportation Alternatives and the Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center. Space is limited - register today! 

Should you prefer a shorter ride, consider riding to train or subway stations along the route to return via public transit.
