Our annual outdoor hands-on arts festival for kids of all ages and abilities is Thursday, April 11th from 9:30 AM-1:30 PM and held on the grounds of Fiesta Gardens, located at 2101 Jesse E. Segovia St., Austin, TX 78702. This inclusive grassroots festival has been around for over 25 years and truly captures the spirit of Austin with its combination of the arts, outdoors, and access for the entire community. Hosted by Art Spark Texas and McBeth Recreation Center, Art in the Park includes art booths, live music, and performances on an outdoor stage. Over 1,000 children and young adults with and without disabilities from AISD and surrounding schools attend this festival each year to enjoy a day of art making! The festival is also open to the public to encourage home-schooled children to attend.

To register your school, class, or homeschool student group, please download and submit the 2019 Art in the Park Registration Form by March 28th.

We need organizations to provide a “make and take” art activity (minimal paint, glue, or drying time). Materials need to be provided for at least 300 participants and suitable for all ages. We are glad to help you think of an activity! If you or your organization would like to provide an art activity booth, please download and submit the 2019 Art in the Park Booth Form by April 6th.

We also need performers interested in donating their time to provide kid-friendly entertainment during the event. Music, dance, comedy routines, or other interactive pieces would be fun. Stage and PA system provided. If you want to perform, please complete and submit the 2019 Art in the Park Performers Form by April 6th.
