Experience the creativity of local artists, meet the people behind the artwork, and celebrate the talent that makes our community so special. Whether you’re an artist, a longtime supporter, or just looking for a great evening out, everyone is welcome.

Bring a friend, explore the exhibition, and help us celebrate another incredible year of community creativity. We can’t wait to see you there! ❤️

Does all this public art happen by elf magic? Sadly, no. 🧝✨

It’s the hardworking MontiArts team—getting messy, slinging concrete, and turning big ideas into reality!

Watch the three of us in time-lapse mode as we cover 1 out of 4 artist-made chairs in concrete, getting it ready for its next magical transformation: mosaics! Because sometimes making public art means getting delightfully messy before the sparkle begins. 🎨✨

Stay tuned—this chair is about to get a serious glow-up. 🎨✨

We set out to bring creativity into the park, spark joy for all ages, and create fun opportunities for families, neighbors, friends, and new connections to craft together. Once again, YOU brought the energy, laughter, and sense of community that made Arts in the Park so special!

Take a look at all the happy faces, creative projects, and wonderful memories from our latest gathering. 💛
