We hope you can join Join Friends of Stewart Park and Wharton Studio Museum next week, Saturday, September 23, for our 8th annual Party for the Park fundraiser!


This year, we are celebrating a "groundbreaking" year in Stewart Park! The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places this past May; we’re debuting new signage about the Erie Canal and an new park maps; and upcoming is the literal groundbreaking for the new Splash Pad and Seasonal Accessible Bathroom, as well as the Addition to the Picnic Pavilion which helps pave the way for the Wharton Studio & Café. All party proceeds go toward park revitalization.
