The Wanganui Floral Art Group plans an Easter display with a difference.

Sandy Howard from the group said members would put on an Art At The Park event, including interactive displays, at Virginia Lake.

The theme would be children's stories, nursery rhymes and games.

Designs would be included that people could recognise from childhood storybooks.

"We'll also have interactive designs," Mrs Howard said. "For example, we'll have a giant noughts and crosses board and people will be able to have a game."

Art At The Park will be held April 4-6, on the lawn at Virginia Lake, beginning at 9am each day.

Entry will be free, and the event will go ahead regardless of the weather.
