Children’s Experience Area

The Children’s Experience offers a mini Art in the Park art festival for children. Located adjacent to the main portion of Art in the Park, our goal is to encourage children’s creativity through hands-on art activities beyond coloring sheets. In addition to free, interactive art activities, the Children’s Experience Area also provides two days of family-friendly stage entertainment!
