Community Invited to Review Design for Judkins Park & Provide Play Area Options Input

Seattle, WA-Seattle Parks and Recreation (SPR), in partnership with Africatown Community Land Trust, the William Grose Center for Cultural Innovation, and A Personal Point of View, LLC, invites all to join us for a community event on Saturday, February 7, 2026 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Please join us at Washington Middle School at 2101 S. Jackson St. Seattle, 98144.

This event will provide an opportunity for park neighbors and park users to review and respond to the design for the renovated playground. Additionally, the project team will be gathering input on play area equipment options. The event will offer fun for kids and families, childcare, food, and raffles (including Seahawks gear for the big game)!

Community input is essential to ensure the final design reflects local values, supports cultural identity, and meets the needs of all families in the neighborhood. Judkins Park Playground is located at 2150 South Norman St, Seattle, WA 98144.

Seattle Parks and Recreation is renovating the play area, both upper and lower restrooms, and improving accessibility in the park. The budget for the project is $4.5 million provided by a King County $1 million grant and $3.5 million from the Seattle Park District and Real-Estate Excise Tax (REET) funding.

Join us to learn more about the project, connect with the design team, and share your ideas for a vibrant, inclusive Judkins Park. Additionally, you can provide input through our online survey.
