Community Charrettes for Frick Park

We’re beginning a community design process with Pittsburgh Parks to design a new treehouse in Pittsburgh’s largest park, Frick Park. We are hosting public charrettes, and we need community members and children to help us generate ideas.

Kid-Centric Meeting

The Parks Conservancy is developing design concepts for the first of Frick Park’s outdoor learning spaces. We need your input! This session is all about kids. We invite children, parents, and teachers to join us for a fun, hands-on session where we’ll learn what kids would love to see in the park. Space is limited, and a light dinner will be provided.
