One of the great things about living in Denver is the careful attention to green space and now, a beloved corner of the Mile High City will become a place where families can gather and play.
What is Nature Play in City Park?
The Museum and City Park grew up alongside each other, both brought to life more than 100 years ago. As part of the City Park Master Plan Update, and inspired by Coloradans’ passion for nature, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and Denver Parks & Recreation are excited to support the creation of natural play experiences in City Park. This project will restore the historic waterway in the southeast corner of City Park while showcasing the diversity of Colorado’s ecosystems through natural features and play experiences. 
What Features Will Nature Play Have?
The Denver Museum of Nature & Science and Denver Parks & Recreation are breaking ground on the Nature Play & Waterway Restoration Project in City Park! Designed with more than 5 years of input from thousands of community members, this area will be an immersive experience for accessible, multi-generational, and multi-sensory exploration, respite, and play.
When Will it be Completed?
Through the construction of this community-driven design project, the Museum’s award-winning Explore Colorado dioramas found on the 3rd floor of the Museum will be brought to life as an immersive experience designed for accessible, multi-generational, and multi-sensory exploration, respite, and play.
The project will be in construction through late 2024.
