Garfield Park Conservatory COVID-19 Update 2/28/2022: Effective for visits starting March 2, 2022, face coverings and the vaccine requirement will be lifted and visitors will no longer be required to provide proof of vaccination or wear a mask in order to use indoor park facilities. While face coverings are not required, we strongly recommend that individuals continue to wear face coverings if they are unvaccinated or immunocompromised, or if they are interacting with people that are unvaccinated, including children under the age of five.

We have additional reservation bookings set aside for members and neighbors. This ensures you have access to book a visit even during busy times.  Please make a reservation online in advance to ensure there is space available on the day and time you’d like to visit. Walk-up reservations are prioritized for Garfield Park & West Side neighbors and members if available. Current members, please check your inbox for the special link to make reservations during these additional times. Members who join will be sent an email with this special link. Questions?

Garfield Park Conservatory Alliance members support our mission to connect people to plants and change lives through the power of nature.  Each membership is a valued contribution that will serve you with meaningful experiences, innovative events and educational programs.

Check out our monthly giving options! Monthly giving is a great way to help us grow and an alternative to spreading out your annual support with recurring monthly gifts. This allows us to dedicate more of your vital support to serving you and the community, and less to administrative expenses. Your gift will be charged automatically each month from your credit card or bank account.  After your first monthly donation, you will receive membership benefits associated with your cumulative annual giving level.
