Leakin Park site of summer art events

Since we have big park-related events coming up, I read Timothy Wheeler's recent article on Baltimore's parks with particular interest ("Baltimore's parks ranked 15^th in U.S.," May 24).

For the second year, Nature Art in the Park is sponsoring the installation of several site-specific artworks that celebrate nature in Gwynns Falls/Leakin Park. The artworks will be on view throughout the summer on the trails between the Carrie Murray Nature Center and Orianda House, off Windsor Mill Road.

On June 2, which is National Trail Day, we will offer artwalks and workshops where families are welcome to see everything from a flying alligator made of wood to a teepee-like structure where the Tale of the Wounded Toad will be told.
