"The artists are always different every year," said Nancy Cross, Brainerd Community Action director said. "There is always somebody new here.
"Arts in the Park is a tradition and it's a wonderful afternoon to meet with friends and family and take a stroll. We hope to see everybody there."
Cross said that, for the first time, Brainerd Community Action won't be the only sponsor. First Supply of Brainerd will be at the event to promote water conservation products.
