Article Image ART IN THE PARK. Each year, two Saturdays after Labor Day, the lovely sheltered green in York Harbor that is known as Moulton Park sprouts dozens of tents and pavilions where scores of artists present an assortment of works of art and craftsmanship for a single day. This special event is Art in the Park, sponsored by the York Art Association. This year marks the 15th of these annual extravaganzas and will be held on Sept. 13, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a rain date of Sept. 14. Pictured here is a past Art in the Park Event.
