Art in the Park is a Lawrence tradition dating back to 1964 and is the Lawrence Art Guild's premier fundraising event.

Fifteen musical groups create beautiful background music, and food vendors provide a wide variety of sweet and savory options. 

Accepted artists are also invited to have up to two pieces of their artwork in the Phoenix Gallery sponsored "Art in the Park Preview Show.” With an opening reception to be held during Lawrence's highly attended Final Friday gallery walk.

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.  Due to the proceeds made at Art in the Park, the Lawrence Art Guild has donated over $30,000 to local high school art programs over the past five years.
