T

he day may have brought some chilly weather and drizzle, but it didn’t stop the 14th annual Art in the 
Park at WaterColor’s Cerulean Park being filled with people looking to support local vendors and artists 
with shopping, grabbing a bite to eat, and enjoying the beautiful grounds. Co-hosted by Monark Events 
March 16 and 17 from 9am-5pm, artists from all over the southeast showcased their work at the outdoor 

festival. Guests all around the grounds spoke about how they look forward to this twice-a-year festival, and although 
it was colder than usual, they couldn’t miss it. Live music by Boukou Groove, Schatzi + The String Boffin, Scott 
Rockwood & Shawn Hartung, Chris Alvarado, and Aaron Wolfe added to the shopping experience. Each musician 
was at a different part of the grounds, so folks were always in ear shot of beautiful instruments and vocals.
