About the Event
Join us for our Garden Walk! Explore beautiful Forest Park gardens.
Join the Historical Society of Forest Park for our Annual Garden Walk on Saturday, July 20, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and help us celebrate our 50th anniversary in style—1975 style!
This year, we're Groovin' in the Garden, with live musicians performing in select gardens, a nod to the year we got our start. Stroll through Forest Park's most beautiful outdoor spaces while enjoying music, history, and summer vibes.
Tickets are just $15 in advance and $20 on the day of the event. Guidebooks (your ticket and map) are picked up the day of the event at our starting point: 7410 Madison St.
Don't miss out on:
- Live music in the gardens
- Excellent raffle prizes
- Delicious food from Smokey Joel's
- A chance to support local history in a fun and unforgettable way

All Garden Walk tickets include one raffle ticket. Additional tickets can be purchased when you buy your ticket or during the Garden Walk. Your guidebook will indicate the house where raffle tickets are handed out and the house where you can drop them off—this drop-off location is also where you can buy more tickets. Raffle tickets are $5 each or 5 for $20.
