Arts & The Park: Celebrate Imagination will be held from April 26 through May 5, 2024 with indoor, outdoor, in-person, and virtual offerings. The theme for the festival, “Celebrate Imagination”, will focus on on cleverness, originality, ingenuity, and the limitlessness of the mind. Celebrate Imagination hopes to highlight how the imagination supports and benefits not just the artistic process, but other areas of life such as technology.
The printed program for Arts & The Park will be published in the April issue of The Springs Magazine. Click here if you would like to see it after April 1.
