Family Saturdays 

 

Families flock to Artpark for hours of hands-on discovery and fun with weekly themed workshops which include traditional art activities like pottery, face-painting, the colorful 'costume closet' and so much more!  

 

There is no parking fee and families are encouraged to picnic in the park at unique artist-created picnic tables
