Watch for Artists in our Parks from May 1 – October 30!
The Artists in our Parks program was launched in 2017 to encourage community building and enjoyment of local parks. Updated in 2026, this program provides opportunities for artists to showcase, sell and present their work beyond the traditional art gallery. Within this program artists are able to connect and engage with the community, share who they are and what inspires them as an artists, while allowing the community to learn about the artists processes. This program encompasses all types of art from visual to performance. Keep your eye out for performances in Pitt Meadows parks over the summer!
