OCEAN CITY, Md. - The Art League of Ocean City is inviting the public to the “Color Run for the Arts” on Saturday, Nov. 15, at Veterans Memorial Park in Ocean Pines.
Check-in begins at 8 a.m. A kids’ run for ages 9 and under is scheduled for 9 a.m., followed by a 5K color run at 9:30 a.m. A two-mile walk around the South Gate Pond will begin at 10 a.m.
During the color run, participants are doused in colored powder at various points along the course. The powders are safe for skin and the environment and wash off easily. Many participants wear white clothing to highlight the effect.
“This isn’t just a run; it’s a full-on celebration of the arts,” said Aubrey Sizemore, event coordinator for the Art League.
The event will also feature an artisan marketplace, music, raffles, and food from the Grateful Grub and Kona Ice trucks. Participants who register by Oct. 23 will receive a free race-day T-shirt.
