Clarksville Parks and Recreation Report for February 17th, 2013
Clarksville, TN – The weekly Clarksville Parks and Recreation Department Recreation Report provides Clarksvillians with a glimpse at the activities and events that are available from the Parks and Recreation Department for them to enjoy together as a family.
This weeks highlights include:
- Cumberland Arts Experience
- Clarksville Downtown Market Seeks Vendors
- Paralympic Sport Clarksville to host the Paralympic Experience
Cumberland Arts Experience
The Kleeman Community Center is offering a new program, the Cumberland Arts Experience, scheduled for Saturday, February 23rd from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. This program will teach basic painting skills as participants paint along with an instructor to create a piece of art they can take home with them.
Classes are held monthly and feature a different painting, all inspired by things and places in the Cumberland region. February’s painting will be “Sunset at McGregor”. Cost is $35.00 per class and includes paint & canvas.
The Cumberland Arts Experience is much more than a painting class, but an entire night of fun as participants will be treated to light music, “mocktails” and food tastings from local chef Kristina Waters.
Pre-registration is required and available online at recpro.cityofclarksville.com. If you can’t make the February class, be sure to join us March 23rd.

This event is open to youth and adults at least 8-years-old, including active duty service members and veterans, with physical and visual disabilities, regardless of skill level.
The Paralympic Experience will feature an introduction to many adaptive sporting events. Games will be played recreationally, but will still be scored for a little competitive fun.

Players can enjoy games designed specifically for them and learn more about Paralympic Sport Club Clarksville.
U.S. Paralympics, a division of the U.S. Olympic Committee, and the City of Clarksville’s Parks & Recreation department partnered in May 2012 to create Paralympic Sport Clarksville. This is just one of many events to be hosted by Paralympic Sport Club Clarksville. All programs and activities will be based in Clarksville and run by Clarksville’s Parks & Recreation department.
Volunteers will be needed for this event. If you are interested in volunteering with the Paralympic Experience, please contact Kevin Cowling at 931.645.7476.
