Art in the Park is an annual community event celebrating creativity, art, and family fun. Hosted by the Palmetto Optimist Club, the event features local artists, craftspeople, live performances, and interactive activities for all ages. A highlight of the day is Reading in the Park, where children can enjoy story time sessions with local authors and volunteers in a cozy, family-friendly setting. Join us on March 28, 2026, for a vibrant day of inspiration, connection, and imagination!
Note: The Palmetto Optimist Club will never solicit vendors through third-party housing or advertising services. Any official communication will come directly from our palmettooptimistclub@gmail.com email or Wave invoice system.
