With milder temperatures expected this weekend, it’s the perfect time to stroll through BREC’s City-Brooks Park and see works from local artists. The annual community showcase Art in the Park kicks off at 10 a.m. Saturday on the park grounds (1515 Dalrymple Dr.) The free, family-friendly event highlights local visual and performing artists and will feature theatrical, dance and musical performances at stages around the park. There will also be a “Picture Your Park” juried photography exhibit and Baton Rouge Gallery artists will demonstrate their techniques and offer a sale on some of their works. Children’s art activities will also be on the schedule, including a sidewalk chalk drawing contest. For more information, call 383-1470 or click here.
