About This Event
No mountains, no gym, no problem! Learn the fundamentals of rock climbing at your local park with Friends of Grand Rapids Parks and GR Boulder Project.
Highland Park has one of the coolest climbing walls around, and more people should know how to use and enjoy it. We’ll provide instruction for anyone who wants to give climbing a try. All levels of experience are welcome, including kids!
Celebrating Climbing with Art
All our events like the Community Climb are free thanks to the power of community. If you’d like to support future free community events by making a financial gift of $25 or more (you’ll have the option during event registration), we’d like to say “thank you” with a poster from our Park Exploration poster series! The first 10 attendees to register and make a donation will receive a poster.
PLAY:GR was designed (and printed!) by Stephanie Ellis (Field Sparrow Studio).
Any gifts made on-site qualify to receive a poster as a thank you! Please note we encourage online donations as we cannot make or keep change.
We 🫶 Exploring Our Parks with You
You belong out here! We have an incredible park system in Grand Rapids, and want our community to have the tools they need to get outside, explore your parks, and find a new passion. Our community events bring together community members and local experts so you can learn something new: whether that’s a hobby, information about the natural world, or finding your new favorite park.
