The Columbia Art League hosted Art in the Park on Sunday. A number of acts performed in the music tent, including the Chump Change Band, Emery Lovett and Jason Ringenberg.

Ringenberg, who put on a children's show under the name "Farmer Jason," said he enjoys putting on a show for children as much as a show for adults.

"They are so spontaneous, you're never quire sure what they'll do next," Ringenberg said.
