The Arts & Jazz Festival also has six food courts for attendees to enjoy and vendor booths throughout the park.

The Children’s Art Tent is located in the north park and will offer 15 different stations for children to explore clay, stamp art, collage art, drawing and more. For more information on the Children’s Art Area, visit dentonjazzfest.com/attractions/childrens-art-area/.

Precautions have been set to prevent the spread of COVID-19, including closing the Center Stage inside the Senior Center to avoid crowding and reducing the size of the Children’s Art Tent and moving its stations outdoors. Full sinks have been added to all portable restroom stations, and signage throughout the park will remind guests to wear masks in crowded areas and practice social distancing.
