Art in the Park is a Lawrence tradition dating back to 1964 and is the Lawrence Art Guild's premier fundraising event. Winning "Best Event" 5 times since 2019 as voted by the public in the "Best of Lawrence" contest, Art in the Park is a Lawrence favorite. 2024 will be our fourth year as a two day event with over 20,000 visitors expected. Thirteen musical groups fill the park and food vendors provide a wide variety of sweet and savory options.
Lawrence will also have a sneak peek of their artwork in the Phoenix Gallery sponsored "Art in the Park Preview Show.” With an opening reception to be held during Lawrence's Final Friday on August 29th.
The Lawrence Art Guild is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to support local artists and promote art in the community and provides workshops, exhibits and show opportunities for its members.
