Clark Park
Enjoyed by Spruce Hillers since the late 1800s, Clark Park always seems to play host to something intriguing, confusing, engrossing or all three.
Neighbors in the West Philadelphia neighborhood gather at this community hub that’s always bustling with activity.
In addition to playgrounds and basketball courts, Clark Park maintains a busy events schedule with festivals, flea markets, theatrical performances, concerts and a year-round farmers’ market.
If food trucks, soccer leagues, cute dogs and that kind off stuff isn’t your jam, stick around for the LARPers, or live-action role players, gouging each other with foam weaponry.
A park landmark, the Dickens and Little Nell sculpture depict the author and his character Nell Trent of the novel The Old Curiosity Shop.
