BARNARD PLACE PARK IS A PUBLIC PARK | OPEN DAILY - 8AM - DUSK
Barnard Place Park is a volunteer, non-profit organization that came together when a group of Barnard Place residents decided to raise our voice about how we live in our community. With a considerable amount of hard work and dedication, we successfully purchased a vacant parcel of land, previously owned by the City of Boston, to save it from development and retain its open space for everyone to enjoy.
Please join our community to raise funds to maintain this beautiful South Boston public park. With your help we will all enjoy it well into the future! Your donation is 100% tax-deductible. If your company offers a matching gift program, please consider asking them to match your donation.
