PARK(ing) Day is an international event held annually on the third Friday in September. This year, Bloomington will be celebrating the event on October 14th, 2016. PARK(ing) Day was started in 2005 by a company called the Rebar Group. They occupied a single San Francisco parking spot to provided a new public use for the space. The focus of PARK(ing) Day is to create these new temporary spaces to demonstrate a need for public space for us all to use and enjoy together!

Howl at the Moon is an anual art and music festival on the Milwaukee Trail in Bedford, Indiana. Each year HAM raises money for specific projects on the trail.
With the support of the community and local artist we were able to raise enough funds for both a connector trail to Wilson Park and bicylces for the police department. This year we would like to fund another connector trail.

What many of them don’t know is that with each purchase of a pumpkin, they are supporting arts education. With the funds from the Patch the Bloomington Creative Glass Center (BCGC) will bring a fully-equipped hot glass arts education center to Bloomington, proposed to open in summer of 2017.
This year’s Patch will feature over nine hundred hand blown glass pumpkins made by community volunteers. Over 40 local artists and non-artists have participated in blowing the pumpkins. Like at a real pumpkin patch, glass pumpkins will be out in the lawn for people to “pick” their own.
Park admission is $7 per in-state vehicle and $9 per out-of-state vehicle.
