The Village of Ballston Spa Committee on the Arts is excited to announce the beginning of our “Planting Art” project! On October 17, at 12 noon, we will begin this endeavor with a celebration in Wiswall Park. Join us as we begin to adorn the streets of Ballston Spa with planters created by local artists and community members.

 This fall’s Planting Art Celebration is a preview of a functional art project that will expand next spring, offering planters to all businesses and residents of Ballston Spa. These planters can then be decorated by our thriving artist community, residents themselves, business owners and community organizations.   

Follow along with us as many more planters are unveiled next spring when the community and visitors will be treated to an ongoing walking tour of art in many mediums on the streets of Ballston Spa.  

 This fall’s Planting Art kickoff and planter creation was sponsored by the Ballston Area Community Center and made possible through a grant from Saratoga Arts with funding by the NYS Council on the Arts with support of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. 

 The Village of Ballston Spa’s Committee on the Arts was established in 2020. Our website is currently under construction.  You can obtain further information by emailing arts@villageofballstonspa.org or visit us on Facebook @bspaarts – https://www.facebook.com/bspaarts or Instagram @bspaarts – https://www.instagram.com/bspaarts/
