Walter Anderson Bike Tour

Come along on a leisurely bike excursion through downtown Ocean Springs led by our Education Director, Tony DiFatta. Start the day with a tour through WAMA’s reinstalled collection Walter Inglis Anderson: Artist, Naturalist, Mystic, and get inspired by Walter Anderson’s very own bicycle, on which he traveled thousands of miles to New York, Texas, and beyond. Then, take a pedal-powered tour to a variety of Ocean Springs hot spots and historic sites, including a special tour of Walter Anderson’s cottage at Shearwater Pottery with the artist's son, John Anderson. Snacks included; loaner bikes available upon request. Cost: $20; $10 Members
