Our programs emphasize creativity, hands-on play and discovery led by our team of multi-talented artists, crafters and animators.

Always evolving, the Children’s Garden in Chimney Court is designed to activate the imaginations of children—inviting them to engage in open-ended play. Here, children have the freedom to be the architects of their environment, to invent and build their creativity and problem solving skills along with an appreciation for the natural world.

This unique program and dynamic space requires parents and guardians to supervise their children while co-creating a magical world of possibilities.

Weekly activities respond to the changing seasons and weather and are based on the natural materials we have available. Most importantly, our activities are a great way to be active and connect with community, family and the environment that sustains us all.

Chimney Court is open to public play on Saturdays and is the focal point of our outdoor school program and Green City Adventure Camps.
