What We Are Doing
FOLKpark is actively involved in a dynamic, multi-step collaboration with the community for the renewal of lower Kinnear Park.
We are applying for grants, reaching out to the local community for involvement, raising funds, and hosting cleanup efforts to both implement our objectives and support our mission.
We want to hear your thoughts and ideas! Please join us at our meetings from 6:30-8:30pm on the first Tuesday and third Thursday of each month at the Neighborhood Center in Lower Queen Anne.
Getting Started
FOLKpark was formed in March 2009. It's the result of several years of neighborhood meetings aimed at enhancing Lower Kinnear Park's role as a unique community resource.
FOLKpark is happy to be awarded two major grants from the City of Seattle:
• $15,000 Small and Simple Grant from the Department of Neighborhoods to hire a landscape architect and involve the community to develop a plan for the enhancement of lower Kinnear Park.
• $750 Community Outreach Startup Fund to launch FOLKpark's efforts in the community.
