Educational events within the park are a key part of our mission. We’re excited to have recently hosted Audubon Society bird walks, a lecture on conversion from turf to native plants, a tour of the City Park Greenhouse and more.

The best way to keep informed is to make sure you are subscribed to our newsletter as we are not updating the website too often.

What’s happening in the park today?
Washington Park is home to many events such as charity runs. Some of these, like the annual Dumb Friends League Furry Scurry, have a big impact for other park users, such as road closures. The city has a comprehensive Special Events Calendar that can help you discover happenings in the park.
