Bijou Park is a serene oasis amidst the bustling urban landscape. Connecting Front Street to the river, this charming park is sits in a centrally located infill property, nestled in the heart of historic Wilmington, NC. We selected the artists based on the showcase of local wildlife and their inclusion of a community paint day. Over two weekends, anyone could participate in the painting so the art truly became a community piece.
