Art in the Park is Art Spark TX's annual hands-on arts festival for students with mixed abilities. This grassroots festival has been around for over 25 years and truly captures the spirit of Austin with its combination of the arts, the outdoors, and access for the entire community. Hosted by Art Spark Texas (formerly VSA Texas) and McBeth Recreation Center.
"Art in the Park" includes art booths, live music, and performances on an outdoor stage. Over 600 children and young adults with and without disabilities attend this festival each year.
We are looking for people to host hands-on art making activities, perform or just help out with set up and take down as general staff.
