Brackenridge Park Conservancy is working to build an interactive, nature-based, and inclusive playscape for San Antonio to enjoy. Our goals include using sustainable and durable equipment, incorporating thematic features, and providing universally accessible play areas to foster environmental stewardship and a sense of community.
If you want to donate to help build the Nature Playscape, please contact Development Director Lynn Osborne Bobbitt at lynn@brackenridgepark.org.
Take a look at the Nature Playscape at Brackenridge Park – 100% Schematic Design.
What’s happened so far:
- Community input meetings were held on August 21, 2024. Attendees spoke with the design team and Brackenridge Park Conservancy, sharing ideas on how the nature-based playscape could best meet the needs of people visiting the park.
- Community input meetings were held on September 25, 2024 to attain additional feedback.
- Pop-ups were held at kid-friendly events and locations to attain playground feedback.
- A survey was shared to attain feedback from community members who were unable to attend community meetings.
- Design Reveal community meeting held on December 16th. Designs were based on community feedback collected through two community meetings, nearly 200 digital survey responses, and countless one-on-one conversations at community events.
This is the first project initiated from the recently approved 2024 Brackenridge Park Reconciliation Project that helped define a set of guiding principles and project criteria for new park projects.
Brackenridge Park Conservancy is committed to providing vibrant, sustainable spaces that serve the diverse needs of San Antonio’s families and communities.
