For the first time last year, Art in the Park, which has attracted patrons at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Makati for the last 14 years, was held online. The annual outdoor fair is a must-go event for collectors of local art on a budget. A year later, Art in the Park is continuing online and with a slight change in date from its usual March opening.
