Art in the Park
November 1, 2026 · Source: National Park Service
Let the park's vibrant autumn colors and significant history inspire you to get creative Saturday, November 1st! Grab your art supplies and meet a park ranger at 10 am at the Curtis Freewill Baptist Church parking lot (47 Storer College Pl, Harpers Ferry, WV). You will take a six-minute walk to the Lockwood House and Harper Cemetery where you will create art in plein air. This location has natural scenery, a vista, historic buildings, and a cemetery. According to projections, the leaves will likely be at peak color. The ranger will be with you until 2 pm but you are welcome to stay longer to finish your masterpiece. A portable restroom is available nearby. A limited number of art supplies are available to you and all skill levels and ages are welcome. Please bring something to sit on, portable art supplies, water, and your creativity. This program is free and is cohosted by our partners at the Harpers Ferry Park Association.
