Parks are meant to be places for the entire community to enjoy, but they frequently fall short of that aspiration. As “park people,” we are constantly imagining new ways to make our parks more inclusive and accessible for people of all ages and abilities, but how does that translate into the built environment and in particular our park playgrounds?

Join Park Pride as we discuss the principles of inclusive play with internationally recognized play expert, Meghan Talarowski. Then hear from local Friends of Park leaders and landscape architects on how they are planning to apply these principles in their own parks right here in Atlanta! This is a wonderful opportunity to learn from your peers and discover how park and playground design can bring us closer to a truly inclusive park system.

This event is free and open to registered Friends of Park groups. If your group is not registered, you may do so here: https://parkpride.org/we-can-help/annual-registration-form/

Due to capacity limitations, please limit the number of attendees from your group to two.
