We had an awesome kickoff to the 2023 park volunteering season March 9th at Monument City Brewing Co.! A bunch of our volunteers came out to socialize, hear about upcoming opportunities and raise a glass to the coming season. Thanks to Monument City Brewing for hosting, and thanks to our volunteers for all they do for the park and community!
Want to get involved as a volunteer? We have so many opportunities…from tree care to trash pick up, sports coaching to Observatory docenting. Sign up for more information at https://pattersonpark.com/volunteer!

Lastly want to thank all of the kids, adults, babies in strollers, and dogs who came out to participate in the free 5K around the park and the expo. We can’t wait to see everyone for next year’s Mueveton + BabyFest!
Did you know Patterson Park is an "Olmsted Park" like Central Park and other well-known spaces? This article from Baltimore Magazine does a great job exploring what that means and highlighting current opportunities to continue to invest to make sure our parks best serve our communities. Our Executive Director, Jennifer Robinson, was part of this conversation!
What a night! 650 people, 32 wines, 150 Cellar Passes, 9 food vendors and a Wheelbarrow of Cheer…thanks to our attendees and sponsors, Patterson Park Wine at Sunset (held May 26) raised $28,000 for our programming and park support!
Thanks so much to our Bubbly Sponsor Wideroots LLC, and our PARK PATRONS: Tenpachi Salon, Charmed Kitchen, Charm City Construction and Repair, Pointer Ridge Management and 8-bit.
Thanks also to our vendors who brought awesome food to sample, including Taco Bar Food Truck, Rize and Rest Cafe, Balti’marons, Cafe Gia, Sobeachy Haitian Cuisine, El Taquito Mexicano and Abbey Burger Bistro, along with Mother Shuckers and Boards in a Box (both in The Cellar). Thanks to our amazing neighbors Ministry of Brewing and Old Line Spirits, for sampling their brews and spirits, and Tipsy Teacher, who brought their wines to share!
We could not have done this without the support of our hosts, Danny and Michele Barnycz, Jeryl Cole and Ty Jackson-Cole of Off the Rox - our curators - and the many tireless volunteers who set up and cleaned up, sold raffle tickets, poured wine and helped us throughout this signature event. And congratulations to Annie Long, who won the Wheelbarrow of Cheer raffle!
