Read Our Second Issue Now!

Between the Leaves Magazine
Issue No. 02, Fall 2024

The Chicago Parks Foundation welcomes you to the second edition of our beloved Between the Leaves Magazine!

Every day at the Chicago Parks Foundation, we meet and collaborate with amazing park professionals and partners. We are honored to work together to help make our parks better. And now we get to share our park stories with you - what happens between the leaves. 

A common theme of this issue is our natural environment. The parks were designed with intention, giving us access to an abundance of nature within an urban environment. We want to shine a light on these natural areas and the innovative folks who are dedicated to reinventing the idea of “public space” today. 

We have added a new section to our recurring features - “Museums in the Parks”. Eleven of our most prominent museums are sited on park property, including the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry, featured in this issue.

As you learn more and enjoy the stories shared here, we ask that you please consider becoming a Chicago Parks Foundation Member. The support of our members helps us bring community ideas to action throughout our city, building a stronger connection between people and parks.

Thank you for being with us.
