PARK EDUCATION
Tower Grove Park offers a natural environment for children and grown-ups alike to engage in the great outdoors—from observing trees, plants, and wildlife to discovering the ins and outs of urban gardening, there is something to satisfy everyone’s curiosity.
Education Programs
Tower Grove Park is pleased to partner with outside organizations who bring additional educational programming to the Park. Most programs are free of charge and some require advanced online registration.
Resources
Engage your lifelong learner by tapping into the free resources provided by Tower Grove Park’s Education Program. Download any of the available PDFs, stop by the Park Office for hard copies, guides and kits, or contact our Community Engagement Coordinator for further information and to share the creative ways you engage your learner at the Park.
Summer camps
Summer boasts a whole new world of freedom and activities for children. Tower Grove Park is the perfect place to spend one’s summer days off. Help direct your child’s bursting energy by exploring the summer camp options that take place in the Park.
Children’s performance Series
Join us at the outdoor amphitheater of the Tower Grove Park Stupp Center for a series of summer fun! Children and families will enjoy performances from storytellers, musicians, dancers, and more as they clap along and learn a few moves.
Field Trips
Unlike many city parks, Tower Grove Park is an urban park registered as a National Historic Landmark, lies on the Great Missouri Birding Trail, and has earned a Level II Arboretum status. We encourage schools to take advantage of the unique features of the Park and learn what makes it special to St. Louis.
Volunteer
We are on the lookout for volunteers to help with our Education Program. We encourage you to reach out if you’d like to work with visiting schools or create nature-based activities for children.
We are a community of learners! Please share feedback or ideas on topics to explore.
