What we do
At our events we set up a gazebo in the park or green space and invite people to come and explore the environment and get to know each other through different creative activities e.g. sculpture, photography, painting, music. We provide ideas for particular activities and also support ideas which people come up with on the day by providing a range of different materials and a lot of enthusiasm. We also provide snacks and hot and cold drinks free of charge.

Why we do it
Art in the Park aims to encourage more creative and social use of parks and green spaces, enable people to develop different skills, provide opportunities for creative play for both adults and children and create a forum for people to interact with different members of the community and their everyday environment.

How you can get involved
Come along to one of our events. We also have opportunities for volunteers who would like to be involved in the project. We are also keen to make connections and partnerships with other projects in the city and elsewhere.
