The time is near for one of the Morongo Basin’s don’t-miss annual events. Ranger Pam Tripp invites you to see the Art in the Park…
Spring is in the air and art is in the park! This year’s 20th annual Arts Festival takes place at Joshua Tree National Park. The event runs April 4-6 from 9:00am to 5:00pm at the Visitor Center in Twentynine Palms. The festival highlights the work of more than twenty artists drawn together by their love and respect for the park. This multi-media showing features painting, sculpture, photography, ceramics and other exhibits on the patio of the visitor center. The Joshua Tree National Park Association sponsors the free event. The association, a private nonprofit, operates retail sales outlets in the park’s three visitor centers to sell educational and other park related items. Proceeds from sales provide support and assistance to the parks interpretive, educational and scientific programs. Come on out and enjoy the art of those to love and respect the park. For information about the park and the annual art festival information, call 760 367-5525. For Z1077, this is Park Ranger Pam Tripp, reminding you to enjoy the solace and wonder of your national park.
