Our Art in the Park Festival is set to culminate in a 2-day extravaganza of artistic fun and fundraising, which is free for members of the public to attend!
Arts & Crafts for Sale
The focus of the event will be our Event Arena, which is the grassy area behind the Craigtoun Cafe. Here you will find a range of artists, photographers and crafters exhibiting and selling their wares in one of the Party Tents and surrounding gazebos.

The second Party Tent will be hosting artist, Phyllis Fenton & Friends. Phyllis has generously donated a collection of original artworks, all of which will be available to purchase over the weekend with the entire proceeds being donated to the Friends of Craigtoun. Phyllis will be joined by some artistic friends, who are also selling original pieces and a percentage of those sales will also be donated to the park.
