About Activities in Bella Vista
Bella Vista, known for its Italian heritage and charming streets, has evolved into a vibrant family neighborhood. The Fleisher Art Memorial offers incredible free and low-cost art classes for all ages, including toddler programs. The Italian Market provides a sensory adventure for little ones, while Palumbo Playground and smaller pocket parks offer safe spaces for outdoor play.

Bella Vista's walkable streets and abundance of family-owned businesses create a village-like atmosphere perfect for raising tiny humans in the city.
