Stanley Park History Program to Explore the Park’s Origins and Lasting LegacyStanley Park of Westfield in collaboration with the Westfield Athenaeum invites the community to step back in time during a special Stanley Park History Program on Thursday, February 19, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. The program will be held at the Westfield Women’s Club, 28 Court Street, Westfield, MA.
Local historian Robert Brown will lead an engaging discussion on the origins of Stanley Park, tracing its beginnings in 1949 and highlighting the people, vision, and preservation efforts that shaped the park into the cherished community space it is today. Brown’s dedication to uncovering and sharing Westfield’s history earned him a Westfield Preservation Award from the Westfield Historical Commission in 2023.
Attendees will also enjoy a screening of the 8-minute documentary, Stanley Park: Rooted in the Past, Growing for the Future, which captures the park’s history, mission, and enduring impact. Stanley Park staff will be on site to answer questions about the park, upcoming programs, and ways to get involved during the upcoming season.
Light refreshments will be served.
This free program is open to the public and offers a meaningful opportunity for longtime supporters and new visitors alike to deepen their connection to Stanley Park.
