Celebrating Green Space with Akron Parks Collaborative

Join the Greater Akron Audubon Society and community partner Bridget Ambrisco for an evening conversation about how local parks are being reimagined. Learn firsthand how residents, schools, and other community members are working together to shape green spaces that feel more natural, vibrant, and connected. This discussion will highlight a special partnership between The University of Akron and Leggett CLC, showing real examples of what collaborative park design looks like in practice. This is an adult-focused program held at the lodge. If you're curious about how your neighborhood's parks are evolving or interested in getting involved in community planning efforts, this is a great opportunity to connect with local leaders and hear about upcoming initiatives. For any questions, you can reach the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (open Wednesday–Saturday 10 a.m.–5 p.m., Sunday noon–5 p.m.).
