Park Activities -- Free DUring Lunch

Your school's Festival experience doesn't have to end inside! Join musicians, dancers, and visual artists in Rice Park and Landmark Plaza between 11am and 1pm May 26 through May 29, 2009 to round out your day.  Space is available for outdoor picnic lunches and, in case of rain, groups are welcome to eat in nearby Landmark Center.  Don’t forget to fill out a Festival information sheet so that we can plan for your groups. More information about activities in the park will be available soon. Stay tuned!

Check out the ARTwalk by signing up for a 30 minute guided tour during the Festival School Days!
