ART in the PARK
New art installations presented monthly through 2024
ART in the PARK presents engaging and often interactive art installations in Woodruff Park on a rotating basis. Previous artworks include Prismatica, a display of 25 colorful pivoting prisms and Millennial Pink, a 30-ft. giant inflatable made of bouncy bubble shapes. Each art installation is launched with an opening party featuring live music and activities.
The next opening party is October 3rd from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m., revealing Taino Night Glow by ARRRTADDICT. Inspired by the beauty of Puerto Rico’s El Yunque rainforest, ARRRTADDICT’s glowing installation is an immersive experience that invites you to venture into a colorful, luminous wooden forest created to honor Caribbean Indigenous culture.
