The Art Guild of Orange Park, Inc. with the help of
The Clay Arts Guild
presents Art & About, A Neighborhood Artisan Event. The Orange Park School of
Music will be providing music by a variety of talented musicians. The date is Saturday, April 24, at Orange Park
Town Hall Park, located at the intersection of Kingsley and Hwy 17 in Orange Park, 9:00am - 5:00pm. Our goal is to provide
a venue for art enthusiasts and their families to enjoy a day of activities centered around the fine arts. As a community
outreach event, we hope to advance community awareness and appreciation of the talents of the artists in our community.
There will be artist exhibit booths, art demonstrations in various mediums, children's hands-on activities -- KIDTIVITIES,
student art exhibit, music and food vendors. Visitors can observe artists painting on site. Some of the art demos provided
by the Village Gallery will include throwing pottery on a wheel, stained-glass, fused glass, embossed plaster, collage and
more.
The Orange
Park School of Music offers music lessons for all ages by highly experienced and qualified teachers. We are fortunate to have
them take part pulling together a wonderful line-up of musicians in various genres for the day. We invite you to bring your
lawn chairs to relax and enjoy the music. www.orangeparkschoolofmusic.com See the line-up of musicians below.
