Art In The Park has received an Emergency Response Grant from the Arts Council England to allow us to adapt our outdoor nature-based workshops for older and young people to the lockdown situation. These will enable us to celebrate the wonderful resource that London Parks provide us in this time of need through virtual and socially distant workshops and also with the provision of resource packs for people who can’t access these. We will be consulting with groups and individuals we have worked with to create the best possible provision.
If you would like to be consulted and/or kept informed about this “Making Art Outdoors” project please contact us on studio.artinthepark@gmail.

What’s happening at Art in the Park?
We are delighted to have been awarded a grant from Lendlease to run a series of drop in workshops in a variety of art forms in and around Elephant Park commencing in the spring 2020. These will now be held online where possible. see our courses and workshops link below
ART IN THE PARK WOOD WIDE WEB
We want to create a similar network to the Wood Wide Web in artwork and we invite you to send us a photo of your art with a ‘tree’ theme. It can be in any art form; whether drawing, embroidery, poem, video, painting or anything else you can think of that we can add to a virtual exhibition, which you will be able to see grow online.
Send your creations to: studio.artinthepark@gmail.com

Team Building with Art in the Park
All successful organisations need innovation, creativity, and ingenuity. Art in the Park organises creative team-building days for many different work-teams over the years. These sessions are tailor-made for the group and we are flexible as to content and size of team. So if you’re a voluntary sector organisation or a private company, get in touch if you’d like a team day with a difference!
