WELLESLEY, MA — In conjunction with Wellesley's Wonderful Weekend, Art in the Park returns for a 7th annual community art event.

This year's project is the quilting bee reimagined. Artists of all ages will use colorful discarded fabric samples to create small rectangular collage samplers.

Each project will then be put together at the site, creating a series of community collage panels, designed for display in storefronts around Wellesley this fall.
