Art in the Park returns to Gateway Park January 10–11

YUMA, Ariz. - The City of Yuma is getting ready to welcome the return of Art in the Park, a two-day outdoor fine arts festival presented by the Yuma Art Center. On Saturday, January 10, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, January 11, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Gateway Park (250 N Prison Hill Rd, Yuma, AZ 85364) will transform into a vibrant, open-air gallery featuring artists from across the region.

Visitors can browse a variety of artwork, enjoy live performances, play lawn games, and grab a bite from a variety of food vendors. The event offers a relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere perfect for a day at the park.

"Art in the Park is one of Yuma's most vibrant traditions-an event inspired by Georges Seurat's iconic painting Sunday in the Park," said City of Yuma Arts & Culture Program Manager Ana Padilla. "With the Colorado River as its backdrop and Gateway Park as its home, it brings artists, performers, and our community together to celebrate creativity in a truly beautiful setting."

Admission to the festival is $1 per person per day, and children ages 6 and under are free. Leashed dogs are welcome.
