About the Auction for Lincoln Park
As a supporter of the Lincoln Park Conservancy, we want to say thank you for all that you do to help us to preserve, protect and enhance Chicago's largest and most visited park.
While we were unable to host our annual Wonders of the Park Gala on April 24, the Conservancy is excited to host its first ever virtual online Auction for Lincoln Park, June 25-29. Closing time for the auction on June 29 is midnight.
Now, more than ever, Chicagoans understand the importance of greenspaces to finding peace, health and relaxation. Lincoln Park is the historic "front yard" for the city and continues to be an important refuge and haven to escape the urban noise. For over 35 years, the Lincoln Park Conservancy has been the nonprofit champion for the Park. Our board, staff, and thousands of volunteers work tirelessly to improve and steward the park while sharing its wonders through our programming.
We also pick up where public budgets fall short and take on important capital projects, resulting in Park treasures such as the restored Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool and the new Sunshine Playscape. Our work preserves the important history of Lincoln Park while guaranteeing its place in Chicago's future. Our next exciting chapter will be the renovation of North Pond, revitalizing the Pond and its surrounding nature sanctuary for this and future generations. This year's auction will raise funds for final studies of the pond to be conducted this summer so that we can begin restoration work, including the dredge, next season. Watch a short video to learn more about the North Pond restoration here.
Please join us in our mission to better Lincoln Park for all. Our greatest asset in helping the Park is people like you. Quite simply, our work wouldn't be possible without you.
Thank you for your support!
