“The Children's Experience is a magical place where the community comes together to offer children ages 3 to 11 a space to explore their creative side and learn about art in many forms through interactive art activities. Here they can try their hand at new art forms and gain a new appreciation of the value of art in their own lives,” says Beth Putnam, Children’s Experience Area Coordinator.

What is the Children’s Experience Area?

The Children’s Experience offers a mini Art in the Park art festival for children. Located adjacent to the main portion of Art in the Park, our goal is to encourage children’s creativity through hands-on art activities beyond coloring sheets. Children may take their creations with them or display them at the Children’s Experience. More than 30 non-profits, art-related businesses, and civic groups supported this special area in both 2022 and 2023. We are thankful for the support of our community.
