What's a better way to spend a beautiful fall day than to take a walk in a park? Come meet us in Meridian Hill/ Malcolm X Park to learn and explore the many details and features this park holds.

Learn about how this formal Italian/French inspired park came about; how the site evolved over the years; and what is happening there now?

The tour will begin at the park entrance at 16th & Euclid (there is an accessible entrance at 15th and Euclid). The lower portion of the park has large sections that are not accessible.

Our guide will be Jeffrey Catts, a local landscape architect, who has worked in both the private sector and with a local non-profit. Jeff has volunteered and worked with the National Park Service in this park for many years.

This tour will all be on paved walks and paths
The site contains many steps and sloped paths
There are restroom facilities in the park (located on the upper section of the park)
The tour will last approximately 1.5 hours

Maximum number of guests for this event is 16.
