 The tents are officially up for the annual Art in the Park event in Bemidji. Art in the Park has been known as a summer highlight for 51 years. It's put together by the Watermark Art Center in Paul Bunyan Communications. An average is about 4,000 attendees each year. This year you'll be able to find hundreds of vendors selling everything from homemade preserves and soaps to candles and greeting cards. It's an art fair that's full of vendors. We have over 100 artists here featuring work that's photography, ceramics, jewelry, pottery. There's a lot of different things for people to look at, clothing. It's great. The variety is amazing. We have some of our returning artists and then we have some new people this year too that are kind of exciting to see. We also have a food court so if people are hungry while they're here they can get a bite to eat and then we have a kids activity tent as well. That's always a fun event. Art in the Park opens at 10 in the morning on both Saturday and Sunday in Bemidji's Library Park. We will have a full recap of the weekend for you in next week's community spotlight segment right here on Lakeland News.
