““I have attended Art in the Park for many many years. It’s arrival to CoMO is always one of the most exciting and fun summer activities around. Many of my artistic treasures in my home have come from this wonderful event. I have also found Art in the Park a great place to pick up unique artistic gifts for family and friends. The artists that exhibit at the show are amazing! I’m so excited to see it back on the calendar for Stephen’s Park this year.””
Art in the Park has been organized since its inception in the 1950's by the Columbia Art League, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The festival is a designated Signature Series event by the Columbia Convention & Visitors Bureau and is recognized and supported by the Missouri Arts Council and the City of Columbia's Office of Cultural Affairs.
To us, Art in the Park is about community, about letting everyone play in the sandbox of art for a weekend. And whilst it is a delight to be able to offer the community a beloved, summer festival for free, free can be tough when it comes to covering the $70,000+ cost of the festival.
Here’s how you can help: Become a pARTner in the Park and make a $100 investment in the festival. As a pARTner, not only will you receive our profound thanks and recognition on our website, but also a sense of community philanthropy as your gift is re-gifted to thousands upon thousands of Columbians and out of town visitors.
THANK YOU, ART IN THE PARK 2024 pARTners in the Park, FOR KEEPING THE FESTIVAL FREE FOR ALL!
