The Lincoln Park Conservancy identifies, preserves, and enhances the natural, historical, and cultural assets of Lincoln Park. Since our founding in 1984, the Lincoln Park Conservancy has been at the forefront of the park's ecological restoration, historic conservation, management, and programming. We seek to fill the gap between government budget cuts and the needs of the peoples' park. Lincoln Park is Chicago's largest and most visited park, and working with 1,214 acres means the park will always need our assistance. As a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization, we operate under a formal agreement with the Chicago Park District to improve and maintain our donor-restored park sites. Through our focused and expert efforts, we are successfully creating a better park one project at a time. Learn more at lincolnparkconservancy.org.
