The Hannibal Arts Council created the Wild & Wacky Art Adventure to provide positive and healthy activities in which parents and children can interact, work side by side, explore creativity, and in some ways strengthen the sense of family. In order for the event to be FREE, local businesses and organizations are sponsoring the event in partnership with the Hannibal Arts Council.

Each year over 200 children and 150 children-at-heart enjoy the event.  Wild & Wacky Art Adventure, a FREE hands-on arts festival for kids 3 to 12 and their families, is held the 1st Saturday in August from 9:00 a.m. to Noon in Hannibal’s Central Park.  Each year the theme changes, but is always packed with hands-on projects, the backbone of the event.  Returning each year with a new slant on the theme are Masterpiece T-Shirts, a Photo Op, Friends of Historic Hannibal’s Box Town, Yoga for Kids and a Snack Station.
