Looking for free and fun events this summer? Topiary Park has something for everyone! Yoga, live music, food trucks, and more!

Located in the heart of the Discovery District, Topiary Garden Park is a 9+ acre public park that is home to a sculpted evergreen garden depicting Georges Seurat’s 1887 A Sunday Afternoon on the Isle of La Grande Jatte. The park is filled with topiaries shaped into larger-than-life human figures, animals, and boats topiaries. It is the only topiary interpretation of a painting in existence! 

Imagine having that as a backdrop to free, fun events that you and your friends and family can enjoy this summer. That’s what’s happening this summer thanks to property owners in the Discovery District area to make the park open and welcoming to all.

Be sure to stop by the Topiary Park Gatehouse, operated by the Friends of Topiary Park, on weekends from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

ALL events are FREE!
