Play, Arts, & Justice

Washington Parks & People invites you to consider how parks embrace play, arts, and justice.

Join us as we Think Outside this Summer! We are excited to present our new, summer calendar that provides a sample of outside-based events, programs, trainings, and activities focused around these themes that we hope will inspire new ways of thinking about community health.

In June, Parks & People will focus on play by asking how can parks catalyze  youth development with outdoor learning opportunities. In July, we celebrate the power of art & culture with our ParkArts programs, which will bring music, movies, and art to parks in Wards 7 & 8. In August, we will look at all the ways parks are connected to justice & civil rights.
