Art in the Parks

Art in the Parks is a free art program for children ages 3 to 12. Activities are held every summer at various York City parks. However, to keep our community safe, Creative York has decided to hold the event on Thursdays for five weeks throughout the month of July at different park locations while focusing on social distancing and limiting the use of shared materials with individual art kits.
