Artist Application

Insects have inspired artists for centuries. In fact, some of the earliest human art features insects. In celebration of the creativity sparked through the insect world, and to demonstrate the creative talents of regional artisans, Geauga Park District invites you to participate in a 10-week community art exhibition of artwork inspired by insects and arachnids in all media – whether you be an artist  or someone who’d just like to visit!

Saturday, December 5
at Big Creek Park‘s Meyer Center *NEW LOCATION*

Registration is required to participate this year, and is currently full for each time with a waiting list.

To allow as many people as possible to have a hand in this wintertime tradition, please register for only one hour-long session: either 9:30 AM, 11 AM, 12:30 PM, 2 PM  or 3:30 PM. Thank you in advance!

Facebook Event

Gather your friends and family around a great cause this holiday season – creating more than 300 evergreen decorations for Geauga County Department on Aging’s home-delivered meals for seniors!

Now in its seventh festive year, Greens for Giving guarantees a way to brighten a senior’s holiday season by building a thoughtful and completely unique handmade creation from scratch.

All supplies – fresh evergreens, decorations and containers – will be provided, but feel free to bring your own hand pruners and additional decorative add-ins if you’d like.

“This is a great way to start your holiday season, sharing a little of your time to share holiday joy with our senior neighbors,” said Holly Sauder, outreach coordinator for the parks.
