Bde Uman/Lake Harriet at the Rose Gardens

Hooray for ArtCars and ArtBikes! In a sea of Honda Civics and Schwinns, these guys add a little bit of whimsy to the traffic jams of the season. This weekend, they’ll travel en masse for the gang’s annual parade, a casual drive around the lake and garden. Past rides have included vehicles covered in wine corks and crochet, cars topped with giant lipsticks and DJ rigs, and bikes adorned with butterflies and mosquitos (the papier-mâché kind). It’s cute, it’s free, and there’s nary a corporate sponsor (ad-free experiences are rare these days). Bring a blanket and some snacks, and head on over to the bandshell afterward for some free music from Minnesota Pops. Free. 4–6 p.m. 4124 Roseway Rd., Minneapolis; find more info here.—Jessica Armbruster

Plus the Minneapolis Aquatennial continues, a Longfellow corn roast, and tattooing in St. Paul.
