Community members are invited to participate in the Malcolm X Park playground redesign process and are welcome to attend a community meeting on Wednesday, Jan. 29.

Funding, which will help bring improvements to this West Philadelphia park, was recently announced by Philadelphia Parks & Rec in collaboration with 3rd District Councilmember Jamie Gauthier’s Office. Improvements include new benches, curb repairs, and a new playground. The first community meeting took place last month to kick off the redesign process.

The upcoming community meeting, which will be held at First Corinthian Baptist Church (51st and Pine), will provide an opportunity for attendees to provide design feedback. The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. with an introductory presentation. Then attendees can rotate through stations between 6:30 and 7:15 p.m. Kids are welcome to join the meeting and pizza will be provided!

Those who are unable to attend the meeting are asked to fill out a public survey which will open Jan. 30 (use the QR code in the flyer).
