Celebrating in Washington Park
Washington Park takes its name from the big park that anchors it, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux with a lagoon, meadows and a fieldhouse. The DuSable Museum of African American History sits inside, and Lorado Taft's Fountain of Time marks the west end of the Midway Plaisance. The park is a favorite for reunions, cookouts and cultural festivals.
Surrounding blocks include greystones, coach houses, two-flats and a growing number of rehabbed buildings. King Drive and Garfield Boulevard are the main corridors, and the Green Line's Garfield stop connects to downtown. Churches host many of the area's events, from anniversaries and repasts to graduation dinners. Some surrounding greystones and coach houses may have room for tented parties, and block clubs organize summer events with cookouts and music.
Reunions and cookouts; Chicago Park District permits apply.

Assume 30-50% of guests are on the floor at peak.
Give each dancer about 3-4.5 sq ft: 15x15 for 150 guests, 18x18 for 200+.
A 8x12 to 12x16 stage at 16-24" high fits a band; DJs usually need only a table.
