Garden Walk

garden walk

The North Center Neighbors Association is excited to announce their 18th Annual Garden Walk, which will be held on Sunday, June 30th, from noon to 5:00 p.m. We are thrilled to offer the trolley again this year, as the Garden Walk route has expanded to include more gardens. With the trolley's help, guests will be able to visit more gardens and enjoy multiple bands throughout North Center!


The Garden Walk will have two sign-in locations:

🌻 The Town Square, 4100 N. Damen

🌻 Bell School at 3730 N. Oakley St. (at Grace St.). 

Both locations are main trolley stops and will provide Garden Walk brochures and a map for guests to pick up.


A donation of $5.00 is suggested; a portion of the proceeds will benefit Common Pantry. Cash is preferred, but Venmo and Zelle are also accepted.


We are looking forward to you being a part of this neighborhood tradition!

There are many fun volunteer opportunities during the Garden Walk. Sign up for a shift with your friends and family. We are looking forward to an exciting day and the Garden Walk couldn't happen without volunteers - like you!
